经合组织成员国的自杀率最近一直在下降,但韩国的自杀率呈上升趋势,尤其是自1997年经济危机以来。关于韩国各时期自杀率的变化,目前还没有详细的分析。我们研究了经济发展、危机和复苏时期(1986 - 2005)的绝对自杀率和比例自杀率的趋势,以及1924 - 1978年出生队列的趋势。我们使用了韩国国家统计局(NSO)在网上公布的1986年至2005年的总死亡率和自杀率数据,并提取了80岁以下个人的数据。对1986-2005年各性别年龄区总死亡率、各性别年龄区自杀率和各性别年龄区比例自杀率趋势进行了分析。为了证明出生队列对比例自杀率的影响,我们利用连续横断面数据构建了1924 - 1978年的合成出生队列。韩国男性的年龄标准化自杀率上升了98%(从15.3 / 10万上升到30.3 / 10万),女性上升了124%(从5.8 / 10万上升到13.0 / 10万)。在男女中,自杀率的比例增长在45岁以下的年轻群体中更为突出,尽管绝对增长归因于年龄较大的群体。自杀率上升,尤其是在年轻群体中,存在明显的群体效应。韩国自杀率的上升是由老年群体的绝对增长和年轻群体的比例增长组成的。
Suicide rates have recently been decreasing on average among OECD countries, but increasing trends have been detected in South Korea, particularly since the 1997 economic crisis. There have been no detailed analyses about the changes of the suicide rates over time periods in Korea. We examined trends in both absolute and proportional suicide rates over the time period of economic development, crisis, and recovery (1986 – 2005) as well as in birth cohorts from 1924 to 1978. We used data on total mortality and suicide rates from 1986 to 2005 published online by the Korean National Statistical Office (NSO) and extracted data for individuals under 80 years old. The analyses of the trends for 1) the sex-age-specific total mortality rate, 2) the sex-age-specific suicide rate, and 3) the sex-age-specific proportional suicide rate in 1986–2005 were conducted. To demonstrate the birth cohort effect on the proportional suicide rate, the synthetic birth cohort from 1924 to 1978 from the successive cross-sectional data was constructed. Age standardized suicide rates in South Korea increased by 98% in men (from 15.3 to 30.3 per 100,000) and by 124% in women (from 5.8 to 13.0 per 100,000). In both genders, the proportional increase in suicide rates was more prominent among the younger group aged under 45, despite the absolute increase being attributed to the older group. There were distinct cohort effects underlying increasing suicide rates particularly among younger age groups. Increasing suicide rates in Korea was composed of a greater absolute increase in the older group and a greater proportional increase in the younger group.
