İntihar ve intiharın nedenleri sosyologlar kadar iktisatçılar tarafından da araştırılan bir konudur. İntiharın
literatürde incelenmiş birçok nedeni bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, intiharı sosyolojik etkenlerden ziyade
ekonomik etkenlerin belirleyebileceği hipotezi altında durulmuş olup sosyolojik ve demografik değişkenler ise
analiz dışı tutulmuştur. Gelirin arttıkça yaşamanın intihara göre daha cazip olacağı görüşü ile Durkheim’in
yüksek gelirin intihara yönelteceği görüşü gibi zıt tezler literatürde yer almaktadır. Çalışmada 1975-2015
dönemine ait kişi başına gayrisafi yurtiçi hasıla ile kaba intihar hızı serileri arasındaki nedensellik ilişkisi zaman
serisi analizi yardımıyla incelenmiştir. Serilere öncelikle ADF ve Lumsdaine Papell birim kök testleri
uygulanmış ve düzey değerlerinde birim kök içerdikleri görülmüştür. 1. farkları alındığında durağan olan
serilerin Hatemi-J Eşbütünleşme testi sonuçları serilerin %10 anlamlılık düzeyinde eşbütünleşik olduğunu ortaya
koymuştur. Eşbütünleşik serilere Vektör Hata Düzeltme Modeline dayalı Granger nedensellik testi uygulanarak
kişi başına gayrisafi yurtiçi hasıladan kaba intihar hızına doğru tek yönlü nedensellik olduğu bulunmuştur. Bu
sonuç artan gelirin intihara sebep olduğunu ortaya koymaktadır.
