Figure 2. Suicide Attempts Among Youths as a Function of Gender and Ethnicity.
Note. AI/AN = American Indian/Alaska Native; AA/PI = Asian American/ Pacific Islander. a Sources: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (2006b), Crosby (2004), Grunbaum, Lowry, Kann, and Bateman (2000). b The most recent data available for White, African American, and Latino adolescents are from the 2005 administration of the Youth Risk Behavior Survey. Data for AI/AN adolescents are available from youths attending Bureau of Indian Affairs schools in 2003. Data from AA/PI adolescents are reported for the years 1991 through 1997 (because of the relatively smaller number of youths in this category; Grunbaum, Lowry, Kann, & Bateman, 2000).
