Sociological work on the impact of divorce on suicide has been largely confined to American samples. The current paper investigates the relationship in the cultural and institutional context of Finland. A Cochrane-Orcutt time series analysis confirms the divorce-suicide linkage for Finland. A 1 % increase in divorce is associated with a 0.24% increase in male suicide, and a 0.12% increase in female suicide. Given that divorce and religiosity trends were highly correlated, however, it is concluded that a master variable, individualism, is responsible for the increase in Finnish suicide.
