这项研究调查了青少年的社区样本中的自我伤害。更具体地说，该研究确定了自我伤害的流行程度和类型，阐明了自我伤害的性质和潜在功能，并评估了心理适应、社会人口和健康风险变量与自我伤害的关系。采用自填式问卷对424名在校青少年进行自我伤害、适应、健康行为、自杀史和社会期望等方面的调查。总体而言，15%的青少年报告有自残行为。分析揭示了不同行为和动机的性别差异。表示伤害自己的青少年报告说，反社会行为、情绪困扰、愤怒问题、健康危险行为和自尊下降显著增加。研究结果为自我伤害的应对或情感调节模型提供了支持。研究结果表明，自我伤害与适应不良、自杀和其他健康行为有关，这些健康行为表明存在负面发展轨迹的风险。
This study examines self-harm in a community sample of adolescents. More specifically, the study identifies the prevalence and types of self-harm, elucidates the nature and underlying function of self-harm, and evaluates the relation of psychological adjustment, sociodemographic, and health-risk variables to self-harm. Self-report questionnaires assessing self-harm, adjustment, health behaviors, suicide history, and social desirability were completed by 424 school-based adolescents. Overall, 15% of the adolescents reported engaging in self-harm behavior. Analyses revealed gender differences across behaviors and motivations. Adolescents who indicated harming themselves reported significantly increased antisocial behavior, emotional distress, anger problems, health risk behaviors, and decreased self-esteem. Results provide support for the coping or affect regulation model of self-harm. Findings suggest that self-harm is associated with maladjustment, suicide, and other health behaviors indicative of risk for negative developmental trajectories.
