abstract="The annual suicide rate in southern Greece, the Peloponnese, from 1979 through 1983 was 5.0/100,000. This indicates a remarkable stability of a low suicide rate over the last half century. With the exception of the age group 15-24, males committed suicide significantly more frequently than females. Females of 45-64 in the rural areas showed the greatest suicide rate (7.8), whereas in the urban/semi-urban they showed the lowest (1.5). The suicide rate increased with advancing age, particularly among males in rural areas. The maintenance of a low suicide rate, regardless of major changes in customs and values, may be attributed partly to the availability of Greek people to others and the easy discharge of anger and aggression.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
