Investigated divorce-suicide relationship in Finland. Cochrane-Orcutt time series analysis confirms divorce-suicide linkage for Finland.

Given that divorce and religiosity trends were highly correlated, concluded that master variable, individualism, was responsible for suicide increase. (Author/NB)
