Influence of economic and cultural factors on suicidal activity

This scientific work explores the nature of suicidal activity in terms of sociocultural and socioeconomic phenomena. Factors have been identified that have a decreasing and increasing effect on the number of suicides. The study examined suicidal indicators of countries from 1990 to 2005 with different socioeconomic situations: countries in a difficult economic and social crisis (countries of the post-Soviet space after the collapse of the Soviet Union), countries with a steadily developing economy (Ireland, Norway , Japan, Australia, Finland, Switzerland, USA, Denmark) and countries with sharply increased economic indicators (South Korea, China).
