摘要: Three series of suicides were examined for evidence clustering: on the Hong Kong subway (1979-1989), from Golden Gate Bridge (1999-2009), and in Wayne County Jail (1967-1992). The inter-suicide intervals their fit to a random Poisson distribution found not differ significantly, indicating that there was no clustering.
