本研究旨在以 221 名女大学生为样本，探讨社会问题解决和性侵犯如何与自杀风险相关。具体来说，我们有兴趣研究性侵犯是否可能在自杀风险（即绝望和自杀行为）的预测中发挥附加作用和互动作用，而不仅仅是解决社会问题。回归分析的结果表明，社会问题解决能力的缺陷，尤其是低积极问题导向和性侵犯是女学生自杀风险的重要且独特的预测因素。此外，我们发现社会问题解决与性侵犯相互作用在预测绝望方面得到了支持。显着的互动是专门针对消极问题导向和冲动/粗心风格而出现的。讨论了当前研究结果的一些重要含义。
The present study sought to examine how social problem solving and sexual assault are involved in suicidal risk in a sample of 221 female college students. Specifically, we were interested to examine whether sexual assault may play an additive as well as interactive role in the prediction of suicidal risk (viz., hopelessness and suicidal behaviors) above and beyond social problem solving. Results from regression analyses indicated that deficits in social problem solving, especially low positive problem orientation, and sexual assault were important and unique predictors of suicidal risk in female students. Moreover, we found support for a Social Problem Solving x Sexual Assault interaction in predicting hopelessness. Significant interactions emerged specifically for negative problem orientation and impulsivity/carelessness style. Some important implications of the present findings are discussed.
