This statement is False.

"When Emile Durkheim researched the rates of suicide in various countries in 1869, he was not concerned so much with the personality traits of the individuals who committed such an act, but was looking more at the rate of suicide per country. "

Thus, he did not conclude that low levels of social integration can lead to increased rates of suicide because group members place the needs of the group above their own personal needs.
