First, the suicide rate has a persistent effect, and it varies over time depending on the transition variable within different threshold intervals. Second, the persistent effect will be manifested in different degrees by the change of the economic growth rate. With the increase of the lag period of the suicide rate, the effect of the influence will gradually decrease. Third, the marginal impact in the third year is much lower than the suicide rate in the first year.
