Firearm Suicide Proxy for Household Gun Ownership, 1949-2023https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/QVYDUDKang, MeganDaugherty, KateHarvard Dataverse2023-05-182025-06-13T20:06:14ZState-level firearm suicide proxy (FSS) for household gun ownership 1949-2023. Unlike most gun prevalence measures that are representative at the national or regional level, this proxy represents household gun ownership trends at the state level and is not reliant on self-reported data that are prone to social desirability bias. This extended proxy represents the longest-ranging dataset of state-level gun ownership rates to date. This dataset also includes historic data on firearm homicide and homicide counts and rates per 100,000 residents.LawMedicine, Health and Life SciencesSocial Sciencesfirearm suicidehousehold gun ownershipfirearm homicideKang, M.
