Research on the effect of divorce on suicide has been restricted largely to American samples. This paper explores the relationship with data from a nation with a substantially different social context, Japan. Japan is marked by a law divorce rate, high extended family integration, cultural conformism, and low couple centeredness. These contextual features of Japanese society may offset the negative consequences of an upward trend in divorce. Other variables related to suicide such as unemployment, religiosity, and postwar anomie are examined as controls. A time series analysis is unable to substantiate The divorce-suicide pattern for Japan. while the present research does not offer support for the relationship between divorce and suicide which Durkheim predicted it does corroborate his general theory of family integration.
