[Seasonal differences in the frequency of suicise in youth and old age (author's transl)]

The number of suicides by young and old people is not constant during the course of the year and differs for the two age groups. In Germany young people commit suicide more often during autumn and winter; old people, on the other hand, are more likely to commit suicide in spring and summer. The difference between the two groups has been statistically proved with 99.7%.
