TY - JOUR PY - 1987// TI - Youth suicide: a psychosocial perspective JO - Suicide and life-threatening behavior A1 - Hendin, Herbert SP - 151 EP - 165 VL - 17 IS - 2 N2 - I draw on my studies in different cultures and subcultures and in different age groups to develop a psychosocial perspective for viewing youthful suicide. This perspective utilizes disciplines ranging from demography to psychodynamics to discuss the relationship of violence to suicide; the role of families in producing youngsters who become preoccupied with death and suicide; and the directions that seem most profitable for future research.
