Harold Pollack: I studied the high male suicide rate. Then I lost my friend to it. We middle-aged and older men face higher suicide rates than are found among our teenage sons and grandsons, or among women at any age.

Losing a friend. Older men have the highest suicide rate of any demographic group. This challenge doesn't get nearly the attention it should. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/08/13/o...

Whatโ€™s new?
๐Ÿ“ We combine CDC mortality data with state gun policy scores (2018โ€“2022)
๐Ÿ“ We reveal where and when suicide risks diverge most by sex & policy
๐Ÿ”ต In permissive states, male suicide risk is:
โ€ข Higher in YA (15โ€“34)
โ€ข Steepest in late life (65+)
โ€ข Driven by firearms

๐Ÿšจ NEW in American Journal of Preventive Medicine with Nate Glasser, Nabil Baker, Harold Pollack, & Elizabeth Tung

We show that permissive state firearm policies amplify sex differences in suicideโ€”especially among young and older men

Unfortunately, one of the many the grants canceled at @Harvard.edu was my T32 in Comparative Effectiveness Research for Suicide Prevention

If youโ€™re coming to #SMDM47 @smdm.bsky.social come see the previously funded great work we are doing related to suicide prevention

Reminded of a special memory: in 4th grade my best friend Zach came to school kinda down. I asked whatโ€™s wrong and he said he just listened to the saddest song and itโ€™s got him feeling kinda down. He pulls out his iPod to have me listen to the theme song from the tv show Scrubs

We find that quasi random assignment to a โ€œbatcherโ€ relative to a โ€œsequencerโ€ physician has implications for:

We examine ED physician variation in tendency to batch order diagnostic imaging (the practice of placing multiple imaging test orders at the same time).

Would you rather be seen by an ED physician who orders their tests in a batch or in sequence?

NEW in Management Science!

My coauthors and I came up with a new consequentialist approach to designing equitable algorithms.

Instead of imposing fairness criteria on an algorithm (like equal false negative rates), we aim for good outcomes.

The use of race in clinical risk models is heavily debated. While race-aware models can be more accurate, some are concerned about reinforcing racialized views of medicine. In our paper, we offer a new perspective on this debate. ๐Ÿงต๐Ÿ‘‡https://annals.org/aim/article/doi/10.7326/M23-3166
