N2  - A time-series study of suicide in the USA from 1940 to 1984 explored the extent to which social and economic variables could predict the actual suicide rate, the smoothed trend in the suicide rate, and deviations of the actual suicide rate from the smoothed trend. It was found that the social and economic variables were more successful in predicting the smoothed trend in the suicide rate.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
