ex2216

Some sociologist suspect that highly publicised suicides may trigger
 additional suicides. In one investigation of this hypothesis,
 D.P. Phillips collected information about 17 airplane crashes that
 were known (because of notes left behind) to be murder--suicides. For
 each of these crashes, Phillips reported an index of the news coverage
 (circulation of nine newspapers devoting space to the crash multiplied
 by length of coverage) and the number of multiple-fatality plane
 crashes during the week following the publicised crash. This data
 frame contains the collected data.
