The
results of the "Table 9" analysis indicates that gay/bisexual males experiencing
harassment in only one of the six categories are at higher risk for attempting
suicide than their non-harassed counterparts, and that the risk increased
with exposure to increasing numbers of harassment. The results of another
analysis which took into consideration both the 6 different categories
of harassments and the number of harassments in each category - a value
of "0" for no harassment experienced, "1" for one experience of harassment
in any of the six category, "2" for two experiences, and "3" for three
of more experiences, producing a maximum score as "18" - are given in "Table
10" referenced below. Generally, as the experiences of harassment increase
for all males (and the same applies for males males separated on the basis
of ethnicity: White Males / Males of Color, with differences existing between
the two groups), their risk for 3 types of "suicide attempts" also increases.
