abstract="Although suicide rates for the U.S. white population are markedly higher than those for the U. S. nonwhite population, it has been suggested that racial differences are changing as nonwhite rates increase. Official suicide figures by race for 1933 to 1985 revealed slightly reduced racial differences, but the differences were produced largely by white suicide rate decreases and not by nonwhite increases. Except in young adulthood, racial differences remain large, and these data indicate that no significant change in racial differences has occurred or seems likely in the near future.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
