東京早稻田大學和大阪大學的研究人員表示，40-65歲的男性大多在上班前自殺。

Men between ages 40 and 65 committed suicide the most between 4 am and 7:59 am on Mondays.

Men in that age group were taking their own lives at a higher rate than men and women of other age groups.

Daytime suicides among men in the 40-to-65 age group were 1.57 times higher than suicides that occurred at night.

Additionally, the number of suicides that took place on Mondays was 1.55 higher than the number on Saturdays.
