Utah is not known for its religious diversity. I wonder how this would look over a different population.
There could also be a difference between what teens say and what they feel. I though there had been some studies that suggested that suicide wasn't as tied to external factors as people thought. Depression is a mental illness, it can happen to people with good families and good friends.
