To evaluate the association between socioeconomic factors and suicide rates.
Analysis of time series of suicide rates, gross domestic product, unemployment rates, labor force participation, and divorce rates of 18 countries are analyzed by the application of panel-vector error correction models. Main outcome measures are the association between the socioeconomic factors and suicide rates.
Decreasing economic growth and increasing divorce rates are significantly associated with increasing suicide rates in men. For women, increasing economic growth, increasing unemployment, and increasing divorce rates are significantly associated with increasing suicides. Increasing female labor force participation is associated with decreasing suicides.
Socioeconomic factors are associated with suicide rates. However, this relationship differs by sex. The current results provide a strong argument that suicide prevention strategies must include the monitoring of socioeconomic development.
评估社会经济因素与自杀率之间的关联。
通过面板向量误差修正模型，分析了 18 个国家的自杀率、国内生产总值、失业率、劳动力参与率和离婚率的时间序列。主要观察指标是社会经济因素与自杀率之间的关联。
经济增长放缓和离婚率上升与男性自杀率上升显著相关。对于女性，经济增长加快、失业率上升和离婚率上升与自杀率上升显著相关。女性劳动力参与率的增加与自杀率的下降有关。
社会经济因素与自杀率有关。然而，这种关系因性别而异。目前的结果有力地证明，预防自杀策略必须包括监测社会经济发展。
