2、Dramatic Decline of Female Suicides in Rural Areas 城市老人自杀率的大幅度上升 Dramatic Increase of Elderly Suicide in Urban Areas,全球自杀趋势 Global Suicide Trends,据国际自杀预防协会报告,2008年全球自杀率是十万分之十四点五(14.5/100,000), 到2009年上升至十万分之十六(16/100,000).这意味着全球每年大约有100万人死于自杀。世界卫生组织的自杀预防文献显示,全球自杀率在过去四十五年年上升了六十个百分点。In the last 45 year

In 2009, the global suicide rate is 16/100,000, costing one million lives a year. 除精神疾病和心理困扰,导致自杀的原因包括社会秩序的崩溃、家庭的解体、婚姻的不幸、经济的拮据、家庭暴力、重病中的绝望情绪。Psychiatric and other mental problems work together with the breakdown of social order, family, and marriag

5、st 20 years, becoming much lower the suicide mortality rate worldwide.,1987年-2009年中国自杀率下降趋势(1/10万),全国数据描述 A Snapshot of National Data,中国的自杀率一度处于一个在世界范围也算得上较高的水平。例如,1987年-1995年期间曾经浮动于17.65/100,000到16.16/100,000之间; 但在1996年-2003年期间有所下降,尤其在2004年-2009年期间出现较比明显的下降,从10.87/100,000降到了7.17/100,000。Chinas suic
6、ide rate used to be rather high by international standards. For example, it stayed between 17.65/100,000 to 16.16/100,000 from 1987 to 1995, then went down a little bit in the 8 years that followed, and eventually declined significantly from 2004 to 2008, dropping from 10.87/100,000 to 7.17/100,000.
7、,1987年与2009年的中国自杀率比较(1/10万),Chinas Suicide Rate by Gender & Residence in 1987 & 2009,中国自杀率下降的拉力 A Major Factor of Suicide Decline in China,从1987年到1997年,农村女性自杀率曾明显高于农村男性自杀率,之后出现一个下降趋势;到2006年,农村女性自杀率开始略低于农村男性自杀率。农村女性自杀率的下降是全国自杀率下降的关键,其背后是大批农村女性从乡村到城市的劳动力迁移。,From 1987-1997,more women killed themselves

12、依然很高。以农村70-74岁的老人为例。在2002-2008年期间,这个年龄组的年均自杀率是47.05/10万,为全球极为少见的老年人自杀率。In past few years, the problem of suicides among elders eased a great deal in the rural areas and yet it remains very serious nonetheless. From 2002 to 2008, the suicide rate among rural elders in the 70-74 age group averaged 47/
13、100,000 per year,a situation rarely seen elsewhere in the world. 更令人担忧是城市老年人各个年龄组的年均自杀率在千禧年之后的明显上升。以70-74岁的城市老年人为例。这个年龄组的年均自杀率在1991-1999年期间为13.39/10万,2002-2008年间上升到33.76/10万。More disturbing is the rise of suicides among elders in urban areas.

21、ity rate of suicides committed by the elderly in urban China went down significantly from 2006 to 2008. Not a single age-set group among the urban elders saw a rate higher than 32/100,000 by 2009. This suggests that the universal-plus-basic medical insurance policy designed for urbanites may have sa
