Abstract: [eng] [cze]
This thesis examines the relationship between the unemployment rates and suicide rates in Czech and Slovak districts from 2002 to 2020 by fixed effects model. The thesis found a positive link between the male suicide rate and the unemployment rate. For the female suicide rate, the link was insignificant. It was found that the moderating effect of built-up areas was estimated as negative, while the effect of population density was positive. These findings were only partially according to the literature, as we expected that both effects will be negative. The moderating effects of greenery and divorce rate were estimated as insignificant. However, the validity of these findings is questionable, as the goodness of fit measures are poor and were increased only after increasing the level of aggregation from NUTS4 to NUTS3 Práca skúma vzťah medzi nezamestnanosťou a samovražednosťou v českých a slovenských okresoch v rokoch 2002 až 2020 pomocou fixed-effects (within) modelu. Práca našla pozitívny vzťah medzi samovražednosťou a nezamestnanosťou u mužov, pre ženy bol efekt štatisticky nevýznamný. Zistili sme, že efekt interakcie proporcie zastavaných území s nezamestnanosťou je negatívny, zatiaľčo efekt interakcie hustoty obyvateľstva a nezamestnanosti je pozitívny. Tieto zistenia boli iba čiastočne v súlade s literatúrou; očakávali sme, že oba efekty prostredia budú negatívne. Interakcie nezamestnanosti s množstvom ze lene a mierou rozvodovosti boli štatisticky nevýznamné. Avšak, hodnota zistení je relatívne nízka, R2 modelu bolo extrémne nízke a zvýšilo sa až po zvýšení úrovne agregácie z NUTS4 na NUTS3.
