Attempted suicide and suicide among Oxford University students. 1978

K Hawton, and J Crowle, and S Simkin, and J Bancorft

A lower incidence of attempted suicide was found for Oxford University students than for other persons of the same age in Oxford City. This may be due to social class differences. Characteristics of the student attempters are reported. On the other hand, the rates for completed suicides of students, over a recent ten-year period, were in excess of those for the rest of their age group.
