关于非自杀性自伤（NSSI）发生率与社会影响相关的研究很少，而且仅限于住院和住院治疗环境中的传染研究。目前的研究使用了包括1965名大学生的档案数据集，调查了暴露于他人的自伤行为和/或自杀行为是否与自伤发生率增加有关。结果支持了这样的假设：与那些没有接触过自伤行为的人相比，那些认识的人只从事自伤行为，或者认识的人既从事自伤行为又从事自杀行为，更有可能从事自伤行为。这些发现提供了初步的，尽管是间接的证据，证明社会模式可能会影响大学生的自伤率。提出了今后研究的方向。
Research on the social influences associated with rates of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is scarce and limited to studies of contagion within inpatient and residential treatment settings. Using an archival dataset that included 1,965 college students, the current study examined whether exposure to acts of NSSI and/or suicidal behavior in others was associated with increased rates of NSSI. Results supported hypotheses in that participants who knew someone who had engaged in NSSI only, or knew someone who engaged in both NSSI and suicidal behavior were more likely to have engaged in NSSI compared to those not exposed. The findings provide preliminary, albeit indirect, evidence of the potential for social modeling to influence rates of NSSI within college students. Directions for future studies are offered.
