This study focuses on the relationship between the incidence of homicide, rage, suicide, and psychiatric hospitalization as violent behaviors with temperature, humidity, and air pressure as specific meteorological variables in the city of Mashhad, in the northeast of Iran. The data were obtained from Iran Meteorological Organization, official registry of Legal Medicine Organization and the local psychiatric hospital, March 2009 to Feb 2010 daily and were analyzed with SPSS-14 using Pearson correlation coefficient, ANOVA, and post hoc analysis tests. The rates of rage and psychiatric admission had a significant relationship with the daily mean air temperature, minimum relative humidity, maximum relative humidity, minimum daily pressure, and maximum daily air pressure (p < 0.0001). There was no significant correlation between homicide and suicide rates with any meteorological variables (p > 0.05). We concluded that, the possibility of nonfatal violence and psychiatric hospitalization would increase in hot and arid weather with low air pressure.
本研究聚焦于伊朗东北部城市马什哈德的杀人、愤怒、自杀和精神科住院发生率等暴力行为与温度、湿度和气压等特定气象变量之间的关系。数据取自伊朗气象组织、法医学组织官方登记处和当地精神科医院，时间为2009年3月至2010年2月的每日数据，并使用SPSS - 14软件，通过Pearson相关系数、方差分析和事后分析检验进行分析。愤怒发生率和精神科住院率与日平均气温、最低相对湿度、最高相对湿度、日最低气压和日最高气压存在显著关系（p < 0.0001）。杀人率和自杀率与任何气象变量之间均无显著相关性（p > 0.05）。我们得出结论，在炎热干旱且气压低的天气中，非致命暴力和精神科住院的可能性会增加。
