For suicides, females were more likely than males to have a diagnosis of depression (55% <jats:italic>v<\/jats:italic> 36%), a current mental health problem (66% <jats:italic>v<\/jats:italic> 42%), or a history of suicide attempts (25% <jats:italic>v<\/jats:italic> 13%). Firearms were the sole method of suicide in 65% of males and 42% of females. Poisonings were more common in female than male suicides (37% <jats:italic>v<\/jats:italic> 12%). Male and female homicide victims were most likely to die from a handgun or a sharp instrument. Fifty seven percent of female homicides involved intimate partner violence, compared with 13% of male homicides. Among female homicides involving intimate partner violence, 78% occurred in the woman\u2019s home. White females had a higher rate of suicide than African-American females, but African-American females had a higher rate of homicide than white females.<\/jats:p>\n               <jats:p>\n                  <jats:bold>Conclusions:<\/jats:bold> The incidence, circumstances, and methods of fatal violence differ greatly between females and males.
