Abstract People seeking information and news regarding suicide are likely to use the Internet. However, evidence of the relationship between suicide-related search volumes and national suicide-rates in different countries can be strikingly different.

| description | Abstract People seeking information and news regarding suicide are likely to use the Internet. However, evidence of the relationship between suicide-related search volumes and national suicide-rates in different countries can be strikingly different. We aimed to investigate the relationship between suicide-rates and Google suicide-related search volumes in the Italian population (2008–2012) using the Italian mortality database that provided monthly national data concerning suicides (2008–2012). Moreover, this study aimed to identify future trends of national suicide rates on the basis of the results we obtained concerning the period 2013-14. Google Trends provided data of online monthly search-volumes of the term “suicide”, “commit suicide” and “how to commit suicide” in Google Search and Google News (2008–2014). Google Search volumes for the term “suicide” lags suicide by three months (ρ=0.482, p-value |
