Violent deaths (suicide, homicide, and accidents) are the leading cause of death in people aged 1--39 in the United States. All three types of violent death may represent suicidal tendencies. Among early (10--14 years), middle (15--19), and late (20--24) adolescents, suicide and homicide rates increased with age and have doubled from 1961 to 1975. Accident rates increased with age but have changed little over the 15-year period. Suicide, homicide, and accidents increased dramatically between the 10--14-year-old age group and the 15--19-year-old age group; suicide and homicide rates were remarkably parallel over time; and suicide rates among young white people were higher and increased more than those among young nonwhite people.
暴力死亡（自杀、他杀和事故）是美国1至39岁人群的主要死因。所有这三种暴力死亡类型都可能代表自杀倾向。在早期（10至14岁）、中期（15至19岁）和晚期（20至24岁）青少年中，自杀率和他杀率随年龄增长而上升，并且从1961年到1975年翻了一番。事故率随年龄增长而上升，但在这15年期间变化不大。在10至14岁年龄组和15至19岁年龄组之间，自杀、他杀和事故发生率显著增加；自杀率和他杀率随时间推移非常相似；年轻白人的自杀率更高，且增长幅度大于年轻非白人。
