最近关于失业和死亡率之间的关系的研究并不一致。本研究中使用的统计方法将失业对死亡率的影响分解为暂时性和永久性影响，并使用1971-2001年期间11个欧洲国家的汇总数据估计失业与死亡率的关系。以这种方式分解失业的影响表明，虽然失业率上升的暂时影响是降低死亡率，但长期影响是增加死亡率。重要的是，永久性影响通常比暂时性影响强得多。这些结果几乎适用于所有研究的死亡率指标。
Recent research on the relationship between unemployment and mortality is inconsistent. The statistical methodology used in this study decomposes the effect of unemployment on mortality into temporary and permanent effects and estimates the unemployment-mortality relationship, using aggregate data from 11 European countries for the period 1971-2001. Decomposing the effect of unemployment in this way shows that while the temporary effect of an increase in unemployment is to lower mortality, the permanent effect is to increase it. Importantly, the permanent effect is generally much stronger than the temporary effect. These results hold true for nearly all mortality indicators studied.
