The case materials of 115 Kyoto University students who committed suicide during the past 20 years were investigated, and the conclusions of the author's former reports (I) (II) (1972, 1973) which covered periods of 15 and 16 years respectively, were reexamined. One of the conclusions of the former report (II) was that the pattern of student suicide was the "performance type"; this could be reidentified especially in nonpsychotic suicides. Also, it was discovered that there were significantly more cases of suicide committed among normal but alienated students in normal homes after the student strife of 1970 than before; and that the "ageneratic" performance type, characterized by "yosetsu ganbo" (a desire to die young) had become dominant under the influence of a "privatistic life style" after the strife, as opposed to an "egotic" or "dyadic" performance type characterized by "eisei ganbo" (a desire to live forever) before the strife.
