摘要：

Suicides in England and Wales among immigrants of Indian ethnic origin were analysed for the period 1970-78. There were excess suicides among young Indian women, these being disproportionately more among the married. Burning was a common method of suicide among Indian women. Suicide rates were low in Indian men and the Indian elderly. A large proportion of the male suicides were among doctors and dentists.
