      Introducción El objetivo del presente estudio es determinar la asociación entre desempleo y suicidio e investigar si existen factores relacionados con el ciclo económico o sociodemográficos que influyan sobre la citada asociación.

      Métodos Realizamos un análisis de tendencias temporales para estudiar los cambios habidos en España en el número de suicidios entre 1999 y 2013. Utilizamos el coeficiente de correlación de Pearson y modelos de regresión para valorar la asociación entre desempleo y suicidio.

      Resultados Encontramos una asociación positiva entre desempleo y suicidio en el periodo previo a la crisis en hombres. En ese periodo (1999-2007), en la población total, cada incremento del 1% en la variación anual de desempleo se asoció a un 6,90% de incremento en la variación anual de suicidio. En hombres en edad laboral, el 1% de variación anual de desempleo se asoció a un 9,04% de incremento en la variación anual de suicidio.

      Conclusiones La correlación entre desempleo y suicidio es relevante en periodos de estabilidad económica, y más débil durante la reciente crisis económica. Desempleo y suicidio tienen una relación compleja, modulada por la edad, el sexo y el ciclo económico.

      Introduction The aim of the present work is to determine the association between unemployment and suicide, and to investigate whether this association is affected by changes in the economic cycle or other variables such as age and sex.

      Methods A time-trend analysis was conducted to study changes in the number of suicides between 1999 and 2013 in Spain. Pearson's correlation coefficients and regression models were used to find the association between unemployment and suicide.

      Results A significant positive association was found between unemployment and suicide in the pre-crisis period in men. In that period (1999–2007), each 1% annual increase in unemployment was associated with a 6.90% increase in the annual variation of suicide in the total population, and with a 9.04% increase in the annual variation of suicide in working age men.

      Conclusions The correlation between unemployment and suicide is significant in periods of economic stability, but has weakened during the recent financial crisis. Unemployment and suicide have a complex relationship modulated by age, sex and economic cycle.
