Suicidal behaviour is a multicausal phenomenon, accordingly its occurence is determined, in a mutually non-exclusive manner, by several medical, sociodemographic, cultural and lifestyle factors. In the current study we investigated the effects of age, gender, marital and educational statuses and region of residence on the risk of completed suicide.
Our raw data came from the census in 2011 and from the Demographic Register of the Hungarian Central Statistical Office. Negative binomial regression analyses were used to reveal the effects of our variables on suicide.
We found that the risk of completed suicide varies significantly by gender, age, educational attainment, marital status, and region of residence. Effects of sociodemographic and region of residence variables on suicidal risk were strongly influenced by gender. Suicide risk was elevated for both men and women who are living in the Great Plain and also for women who are living in the region Central Hungary and men who are living in the region Northern Hungary.
The thorough clarification of sociodemographic determinants of suicide is essential in the identification of endangered groups and it is the prerequisite of successful prevention as well.
自杀行为是一种多因素现象,因此其发生由多种医学、社会人口统计学、文化和生活方式因素以相互不排斥的方式共同决定。在本研究中,我们调查了年龄、性别、婚姻和教育状况以及居住地区对自杀死亡风险的影响。
我们的原始数据来自2011年的人口普查以及匈牙利中央统计局的人口登记册。采用负二项回归分析来揭示我们的变量对自杀的影响。
我们发现,自杀死亡风险在性别、年龄、教育程度、婚姻状况和居住地区方面存在显著差异。社会人口统计学和居住地区变量对自杀风险的影响受到性别的强烈影响。生活在大平原地区的男性和女性,以及生活在匈牙利中部地区的女性和生活在匈牙利北部地区的男性,自杀风险均有所升高。
全面阐明自杀的社会人口统计学决定因素对于识别濒危群体至关重要,也是成功预防自杀的前提条件。
