摘要

摘要本研究探讨面对面学校教育对美国青少年自杀的影响。我们的研究表明，青少年自杀率在夏季历史上有所下降，而在8月份开学的县，青少年自杀率又有所上升。我们记录到，在2019冠状病毒病大流行开始时，这种模式发生了变化:2020年3月学校关闭时，青少年自杀率下降了25%，整个夏季都保持在较低水平。考虑到各个县在重新开放时间上的差异，我们发现，回到面对面的指导下，青少年自杀率增加了12- 18%。对谷歌搜索数据的分析表明，欺凌可能是一种机制。

In-Person Schooling and Youth Suicide

Abstract

This study explores the effect of in-person schooling on youth suicide in the United States. We show that youth suicide rates historically declined during summers and rose again earlier in counties with an August school starting date. We document a departure from this pattern at the onset of the COVID19 pandemic: youth suicides fell 25 percent in March 2020, when schools closed, and remained low throughout summer. Leveraging county variation in the timing of reopening, we find that returning to in-person instruction increased youth suicides by 12-18 percent. Analysis of Google search data suggests that bullying is a likely mechanism.
