背景自我伤害行为是人类表现出的最戏剧性的行为之一。没有已知的单一原因，也没有普遍同意的治疗方法。复杂的顺序和时间分析的行为提供了替代性的描述自我伤害，提供了新的见解，其启动和maintenance.MethodForty小时的观察，为每个32名参与者收集在一个连续的2周内。电子记录了20类行为和环境事件，记录了每次观察发生的精确时间。时间的行为/环境模式与自我伤害事件的方法（T模式;主题）检测非线性，真实的时间patterns.ResultsResults结果表明，行为的自我伤害都有助于更多的模式和更复杂的模式。此外，自伤留下的印记组织的行为，即使计数自伤被驱逐出连续record.ConclusionsBehaviour的参与者组织在一个更多样化的阵列的模式时，自伤行为是存在的。自我伤害行为可以作为奇点，增加自组织行为模式的一致性。
BackgroundSelf‐injuring acts are among the most dramatic behaviours exhibited by human beings. There is no known single cause and there is no universally agreed upon treatment. Sophisticated sequential and temporal analysis of behaviour has provided alternative descriptions of self‐injury that provide new insights into its initiation and maintenance.MethodForty hours of observations for each of 32 participants were collected in a contiguous 2‐week period. Twenty categories of behavioural and environmental events were recorded electronically that captured the precise time each observation occurred. Temporal behavioural/environmental patterns associated with self‐injurious events were revealed with a method (t‐patterns; THEME) for detecting non‐linear, real‐time patterns.ResultsResults indicated that acts of self‐injury contributed both to more patterns and to more complex patterns. Moreover, self‐injury left its imprint on the organisation of behaviour even when counts of self‐injury were expelled from the continuous record.ConclusionsBehaviour of participants was organised in a more diverse array of patterns when self‐injurious behaviour was present. Self‐injuring acts may function as singular points, increasing coherence within self‐organising patterns of behaviour.
