Description
Camillia Lui and co-authors broke apart lumped data to reveal suicide risk among Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander teenagers in California. Suicide is a leading cause of death for these youths, but grouping them hides big differences. The team used survey data from over half a million public high school students.
In the combined group, about seventeen and a half percent reported suicidal thoughts in the past year. Split into subgroups, the rate ran from about thirteen percent for Asian Indian students to over twenty-one percent for Filipino students. Teenagers with mixed ethnic or racial identity showed higher risk in every group. The authors say counting subgroups separately is essential to see who needs help.
