Suicide is one of the most important causes of death in the European Union Countries (EU) and is considered as aphenomenon which can be explained from a psychological, biological and social point of view. Objectives: Thisresearch will analyze the phenomenon of suicide in the European Union from a sociological point of view, with theaim of creating a multivariate model which explains such phenomenon. Method: Taking into account those dataoffered by the European Statistics Office (EUROSTAT), this study will try to explain, through the multiple linearregression model, suicide rates in European countries from demographic variables (number of inhabitants, divorcerate, ratio of women), economic variables (Gross Domestic Product (GDP), general government gross debt), socialvariables (government expenditure on social protection, population at risk of poverty) or educational variables(public expenditure on education and population with secondary education). Conclusions: A model to explainsuicide rates in different countries was developed. This model was made up of two variables (percentage of peoplewith secondary education and ratio of women), which account for 50% of the suicide rate.
