从一个基于地理的随机样本的752名儿童的数据被用来探讨自杀企图,母亲和儿童之间的一致性报告的自杀想法和企图,和精神相关的青年报告的自杀企图。研究发现,由母亲报告的儿童自杀意念比根据儿童自己的报告时要低得多。母亲一般也不知道其子女报告的自杀企图。有自杀倾向的人患重度抑郁症的风险是没有自杀倾向的人的18倍,并且经常经历抑郁症的严重后果。母亲们还报告说,这些孩子有更多的情绪和行为问题,更有可能为他们寻求心理帮助。它的结论是,有关调查报告的自杀企图的危险因素的信息是重要的,在了解临床确定的自杀企图的起源。
Data from a geographically-based random sample of 752 children were used to explore suicide attempts, concordance between mother and child reports of suicidal ideas and attempts, and the psychiatric correlates of youth-reported suicide attempts. Suicidal ideation in children was found to be much lower when reported by mothers than when based on the children's own reports. Mothers were also generally unaware of the suicide attempts reported by their children. Suicide attempters had 18 times the risk of major depression as did nonattempters and frequently experienced serious consequences of their depression. Mothers also reported more emotional and behavioral problems in these children and were more likely to have sought psychological help for them. It is concluded that information regarding risk factors for survey-reported suicide attempts is of importance in understanding the origins of clinically identified suicide attempts.
