Streszczenie:
Suicide is one of the most tragic issues in mental health. Suicide has traditionally been studied as an outcome of specific psychiatric disorders. The goal of this study was to consider whether there might be underlying dimensions across psychiatric disorders that are related to suicidality. This study proposed a transdiagnostic model of suicidality. Psychiatric symptoms were hypothesized to load onto three factors: Negative Mood, Impulsivity, and Arousal. Factors were then examined as predictors of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. Data were drawn from the National Comorbidity Survey-Replication Study (NCS-R). Structured interviews were conducted in two parts using the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI). All survey respondents (N = 9,282) were administered the core diagnostic assessment. Those who met criteria for a psychiatric disorder, met subthreshold lifetime criteria and sought treatment at some time in their life, or ever in their life made a plan to commit or attempt suicide were administered Part II of the interview and are the sample of interest in this study (N = 5,692). The sample was representative of non-institutionalized civilian adults ages 18 or older whose primary language was English. Factor analyses revealed three modified factors: a Negative Mood/Emotional Arousal factor, a Negative Thinking factor, and a Recurrent Substance Use factor. Negative Mood/Emotional Arousal was a strong predictor of suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation mediated the relationship between Negative Mood/Emotional Arousal and suicide attempts, controlling for Negative Thinking. Negative Thinking, Recurrent Substance Use, and suicidal ideation predicted suicide attempts. When number of suicide attempts was examined as the dependent variable, the model did not fit the data, suggesting that these factors were not as helpful in predicting highly recurrent suicide attempts. Recurrent Substance Use moderated the relationship between Negative Mood/Emotional Arousal and suicide attempts, demonstrating that, as negative mood increases, people with high levels of recurrent substance use are more likely to make a suicide attempt compared to people with mean or low levels of recurrent substance use. In sum, results of this study support two distinct pathways to making a suicide attempt: a direct relationship between negative thinking and suicide attempts, as well as an interaction between negative mood/emotional arousal and recurrent substance use. Several limitations including issues of sampling, the cross-sectional nature of the data, self-report bias, and the structure of the CIDI instrument, were taken into account in interpreting the results. Clinical implications and future directions for research are discussed.

Streszczenie:

Suicide is a significant public health problem. It is among the top three chief causes of death for young people, ages 10-24 years (CDC, 2016). The majority of studies on suicide focus on what causes suicidal thoughts, suicidal attempts, and completed suicides (e.g., Dougherty, 2010; Shneidman, 1993; Van Orden et al., 2010). While these studies are crucial, it is also vital to understand why and how people survive and thrive. Focusing on adolescent suicide prevention through the lens of resiliency, the research questions are as follows: Why and how did suicidal adolescents decide against suicide?

Thirty-two participants (16 males and 16 females) from diverse ethnic and socioeconomic backgrounds, ages 21 to 50 years, completed an anonymous online self-report questionnaire. The data were analyzed, using Braun and Clarke's (2006) thematic analysis. The results of the analysis identified four areas in which suicidal adolescents find resiliency from suicidal thinking: social support and professional help, positive life event or circumstance, responsibility and or purpose, and religious and/or spiritual experience. Drawing from the linkages of the themes, the adolescent suicidal ideation theory was developed and explained.

The theoretical explanation, the first of its kind in regard to understanding why and how suicidal youths decide against suicide, is an important contribution in the fields of psychology and adolescent suicide prevention. It also serves to inform mental health professionals, educators, parents, adolescents, and children. Implications in the research highlight the buffering effects of personal connection (i.e., social and professional help), positive emotions, responsibility and purpose, and a religious and/or spiritual foundation in fostering suicidal ideation resilience. Suggested recommendations for policymakers include developing comprehensive training classes to promote healthy families and effective parenting; promoting age appropriate coping and problem-solving skills and resilience strategies to children and adolescents, starting a kindergarten through the twelfth grade (K-12), and six other recommendations are outlined in the discussion section of the paper. Further research could be conducted to strengthen the evidence-base of humanistic, existential, transpersonal, integrative, and trauma-informed therapies to help depressed and suicidal young people recover and acquire positive mental emotional health and wellness.

Background. There are few cross-national comparisons of the rates of suicide ideation and attempts across diverse countries. Nine independently conducted epidemiological surveys using similar diagnostic assessment and criteria provided an opportunity to obtain that data. Methods. Suicide ideation and attempts were assessed on the Diagnostic Interview Schedule in over 40000 subjects drawn from the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, France, West Germany, Lebanon, Taiwan, Korea and New Zealand. Results. The lifetime prevalence rates/100 for suicide ideation ranged from 2·09 (Beirut) to 18·51 (Christchurch, New Zealand). Lifetime prevalence rates/100 for suicide attempts ranged from 0·72 (Beirut) to 5·93 (Puerto Rico). Females as compared to males had only marginally higher rates of suicidal ideation in most countries, reaching a two-fold increase in Taiwan. Females as compared to males had more consistently higher rates for suicide attempts, reaching a two- to three-fold increase in most countries. Suicide ideation and attempts in most countries were associated with being currently divorced/separated as compared to currently married. Conclusions. While the rates of suicide ideation varied widely by country, the rates of suicide attempts were more consistent across most countries. The variations were only partly explained by variation in rates of psychiatric disorders, divorce or separation among countries and are probably due to cultural features that we do not, as yet, understand.

The present study attempted to identify demographic and psychological variables predictive of adolescent suicidal ideations and attempts. Data from 90 adolescents, who completed an intake form at a university community mental health clinic or were student volunteers, were utilized. Two judges tabulated information regarding age, gender, number of siblings, ethnicity, parental marital status, drug use, depression, suicidal ideation, and previous suicidal attempts. A multiple regression analysis was performed to identify which variables had predictive significance. Depression was the best predictor of both suicidal ideations and attempts. Ethnicity was also predictive; white adolescents were found to be at higher risk for suicide than individuals from other ethnic groups. It is suggested that additional studies be done exploring other predictors of suicide among adolescents.

Streszczenie:
Suicide is among the leading cause of adolescent deaths worldwide and thus a significant public health concern. Risk factors for suicidal behavior include drinking alcohol, smoking, and engaging in risky sexual behaviors. One area of concern is dietary patterns and their association with depressive symptoms and suicidal ideation. Bandura's social cognitive theory emphasizes the assumption that one can perform specific actions to bring about desired outcomes. The primary research questions for this quantitative, retrospective, cross-sectional study concerned whether there is a statistically significant interaction between fruit and vegetable intake and suicidal ideation or suicide attempts. Data from 71,776 adolescents in the Centers for Disease Control's Youth Risk Behavioral Surveillance Survey were analyzed using complex samples binominal logistic regression. The dependent variable was suicidal ideation or suicide attempts, and the independent variable was intake of fruits and vegetables. Suicidal ideation was significantly, positively correlated with fruit and vegetable intake. Even after controlling for age, sex, race, and depression, there was a significant, positive correlation with fruit and vegetable intake. Suicide attempt was significantly, positively correlated with fruit and vegetable intake even after controlling for age, sex, race, and depression. Although the results of this study were contrary to previous findings, these results do support the claim that sugary foods and fast foods have a dopaminergic 'reward effect'. The findings may foster positive social change by identifying the relationship between fruit and vegetable intake and suicidal ideation or suicide attempts in adolescents.

Suicide, ranked as one of the top five causes of death among adolescents, aged 15 to 19, claims numerous lives within the state of New York. Driven by the social cognitive theory, the objective of this quantitative cross-sectional study was to investigate the association among being offered, sold, or given illegal drugs, illegal drug use, being bullied, age, gender, ethnicity, suicidal ideation, and attempted suicide among adolescents in New York. The Centers for Disease Control 2015 Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance data for 89,068 New York adolescents, Grades 9-12, were utilized in this study. There was increased risk of suicide ideation among those who were offered/sold/given drugs on school property (OR = 1.665), used heroin (OR = 2.735 - 4.186), Hispanic/Latino (OR = 1.466) or American Indian/Alaskan Native (OR = 1.802), aged 12 or younger (OR = 6.762), were bullied (OR = 2.728), and female (OR = 2.248). There was an increased risk of attempted suicide among those who were offered/sold/given drugs (OR = 1.578), currently used marijuana on a monthly basis or more (OR = 1.366-1.634), used heroin (OR = 5.023-20.267), aged 12 or younger (OR = 3.209), Black (OR = 1.443), Hispanics/Latino (OR = 1.976), American Indian/Alaskan Native (OR = 2.497), or of multiple races (OR = 2.121), were bullied (OR = 2.032) and female (OR = 1.822). These results served to support all the study's alternative hypotheses and the theoretical foundation of this study, and were consistent with findings of previous research. This study has implications for positive social change: the results could be used by Public Health practitioners to affect adolescent suicidal ideation and potentially suicide with the possibility of reducing adolescent morbidity and mortality.

Research suggests that substance use is a risk factor for increased suicidal ideation. This study explored the relationship between substance use, suicidal ideation, and impulsivity in a sample of college students and individuals seeking outpatient treatment. Participants were interviewed for information on severity of suicidal ideation and substance use. Participants completed the Psychiatric Diagnostic Screening Questionnaire, the substance use section of the Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-IV, the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, the Scale for Suicide Ideation, and the UPPS-P Impulsivity Behavior Scale. These measures were used to determine the amount of variance in suicidal ideation accounted for by substance use. Variables reflecting substance use classification, frequency, and severity were used to predict severity of suicidal ideation.

Streszczenie:
Introduction: Suicide has a devastating impact on individuals and communities worldwide yet few risk few factors reliably predict future suicide attempts. A growing body of research suggesting that that risk factors commonly associated with suicide (such as depression) are more predictive of suicidal thoughts, not suicidal acts – an important distinction since most people who think about suicide do not act on their thoughts. Executive functioning abilities mediate the relationship between thoughts and behaviours and therefore might be uniquely implicated in the progression from suicidal thoughts to suicidal acts. Our study examined whether two multidimensional measures of executive functioning differentiated those with a history of suicidal ideation from those with a history of suicide attempts using an online platform. Participants and Methods: Five-hundred and seventy seven participants (Mean age=34.6, SD=11.6) participated in study. Participants were divided into five groups based on lifetime, greater than past-12 month, and past-12 month histories of suicide ideation and suicide attempts: nonsuicidal (n=180), non-recent ideation (n=136), recent ideation (n=61), non-recent attempts (n=103), recent attempts (n=21). Executive functioning (EF) was measured using the Behavioural Rating Inventory of Executive Functions – Adult Version (BRIEF-A) and the Frontal Systems Behaviour Scale (FrSBe). Several covariates including impulsivity and other known suicide risk factors and potential confounds were also assessed. Results: Moderate to large differences (d range=.53-1.08) in executive functioning were obtained comparing recent attempters to recent ideators. Attempters and ideators differed most on the FrSBe disinhibition scale (d=1.08), BRIEF Behaviour Regulation Index (d=1.02), and BRIEF-A Global Executive Composite (d=1.01), with attempters reporting worse executive functioning. Interestingly, comparing lifetime attempters to ideators as well as non-recent attempters to ideators revealed only weak to small differences (d range=.11-.38 and .03 – .3, respectively). This pattern remained robust when controlling for covariates. Discussion: Lifetime attempters and ideators did not meaningfully differ on self-reported executive functioning. Executive functioning did, however, clearly differentiate recent attempters from recent ideators suggesting that impaired executive functioning might represent an important state risk factor for suicide attempts. However, findings may also represent a reporting bias, and it will be important for future studies to utilize prospective designs.

Suicide in rural areas has not received significant attention in the research literature to this point, although suicide rates are higher among adults and older adults in rural areas than in urban areas. The aims of the study were as follows: (1) establish the feasibility of assessing suicide ideation and history of suicidal behavior; (2) determine preliminary estimates of the prevalence of suicide ideation, and history of suicide attempts; and (3) examine the effectiveness and acceptability of safety and referral plans for individuals whose responses indicated elevated suicide risk, in rural communities with limited access to referral care. Participants were 96 adults aged 40 to 85 years old (M = 57.34, SD = 11.47) residing in West Texas. Our results indicate that 26% of participants endorsed a lifetime history of suicide ideation and/or suicide attempt(s) and 12.5% reported suicide ideation in the past year. In addition, 93.4% of participants reported that participation in our suicide-focused study was an excellent or good experience. Results suggest that individuals in rural communities are willing to talk about suicide, found the experience helpful, and were satisfied with the referral process.

Suicide, the endpoint of the continuum that begins with suicide ideation, is known to be an important precursor of attempted suicides. The purpose of this study was to determine the level of suicide ideation of police members and to determine the differences between suicide ideation of various demographic variables, in particular, the gender, rank and race groups of police members. The convenience sample (N = 111) was drawn from police stations in the Nelson Mandela Metropole in the Eastern Cape Province. The Adult Suicide Ideation Questionnaire (ASIQ) and a Biographical Questionnaire were administered. The results indicated that 1.4 % of the sample showed significant levels of suicidal ideation scoring a high score above 31 (i.e., above the 97th percentile by ASIQ). The T-test, One-way (ANOVA) and the Pearson Chi-Square analysis showed no significant differences between suicide ideation and the demographic variables based on the police station, age, gender, race, rank, years of service, years of current position, educational qualifications, marital status, presence of medical conditions, number of alcoholic drinks consumed per week, smoking behaviour and exercise behaviour. However, participants with previous suicide attempts had significant high scores on ASIQ.

Patients with psychosis comprise a high-risk group in terms of suicide behaviors especially in the early phases. Suicide ideation on the other hand acts as the starting point along the chain of suicide. However less is known about suicide ideation among patients at their first-episode psychosis (FEP). Present study investigated contributing factors in suicidal ideation among FEP patients in Hong Kong. FEP outpatients (N=20) and normal controls (N=20) were invited to complete a set of self-assessment questionnaires. These questionnaires measured a wide range of potential risk factors including hopelessness, impulsiveness, reasons for living, insight, drug-attitude and treatment satisfaction. Results showed that patients have a higher occurrence-rate of suicide ideation (45%) compared to patients without ideation. Ideators were significantly more hopeless, impulsive, more aware of their illness and having fewer survival & coping beliefs. Taken together, current study extended the stress-diathesis model in explaining suicidal behaviors among psychotic patients. We also demonstrated that insight in patients plays a role in interacting with suicide ideation. Further, since hopelessness appeared to be the strongest associative factor among all, this study has implications on prevention work focusing on hope maintenance.

Streszczenie:
Despite what is known about predictors of suicide risk and consequences of insomnia, research has yet to delineate mechanisms that may explain the known relationship between insomnia symptoms and suicide risk. There is some disagreement in the literature regarding whether this relationship could be primarily explained by recent depressive symptoms, or whether there may be other explanatory factors related to sleep deficits. The present study addressed this contention in the literature by examining 1) whether socio-cognitive variables (e.g. fatigue, appraised social problem-solving ability, and hopelessness) explained this insomnia-ideation relationship, and 2) whether these variables contributed some explanatory variance in suicide ideation above and beyond that explained by depressive symptoms. Approximately 483 female participants completed an online study survey. Cross-sectional path analyses were conducted in order to examine the initial hypothesized path, as well as whether the path persisted when depression was integrated in the model. Results suggest that the hypothesized socio-cognitive factors related to sleep deficits partially mediate the established insomnia-suicide ideation relationship. And, further, that the socio-cognitive pathway from sleep loss to suicide ideation persists even when accounting for recent depressive symptoms, such that both pathways separately explain some degree of this relationship. These findings have meaningful implications for understanding mechanisms by which insomnia symptoms may confer heightened risk for considering suicide.

Suicide in the South African Police Service is a reality. The inability to cope effectively with stressful events in a working environment could lead to chronic stress, burnout and even suicide. The purpose of this research was to establish the current level of suicide ideation in police officials in the KwaZulu-Natal Province. Secondly, the purpose was to determine the relationship between coping and stress, and thirdly, whether these factors could he used to predict suicide ideation of police officials in the Kwazulu-Natal Province. A cross-sectional survey design was used to achieve the research objectives. The study population consisted of 272 uniformed police officials in the KwaZulu-Natal Province. The following measuring battery was used: a biographical questionnaire, the Adult Suicide Ideation Questionnaire, COPE Questionnaire, and the Police Stress Inventory. Descriptive statistics (e.g. standard deviations, means, skewness and kurtosis) and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Cronbach alpha coefficients, inter-item correlation coefficients and confirmatory factor analysis were used to assess the reliability and validity of the measuring battery. Discriminant analysis was used to determine which variables could be used to predict suicide ideation. The results indicated that 9 (3,30%) of the uniformed police officials have significant suicide ideation levels and that 11 (4,15%) police officials in the KwaZulu-Natal Province have attempted suicide in the past. No difference was found between the suicide ideation of males and females. A positive correlation between suicide ideation, police-specific stressors, as well as problem-focused coping, passive coping and social support was found. The results also indicated correlations between suicide ideation, medical condition and alcohol abuse, where stress because of lack of resources was identified as the primary stressor that caused alcohol abuse. The results also indicate that stress caused by job demands and lack of resources as well as police-specific stressors, problem-focused coping, passive coping and social support could be used to classify police officials into groups of high and low suicide ideation. Recommendations with regard to the improvement of the South African Police Service, as well as for future research were made.

O papel da religiosidade na determinação do comportamento suicida é controverso, havendo estudos que a consideram um fator protetor e outros um fator de risco. Neste estudo os autores conduziram uma revisão sistemática da literatura para avaliar a relação entre a religiosidade e o comportamento suicida. Dentre os 154 artigos publicados em periódicos científicos inicialmente identificados nas bases Medline, Lilacs, Scielo e PsycInfo, foram selecionados 59 artigos que enfocavam a associação entre religiosidade e comportamento suicida. Para a avaliação dos atributos qualitativos dos artigos foi desenvolvido um Roteiro de Avaliação Qualitativa. Os resultados mostram que grande parte dos artigos encontrados apresentava falta de rigor metodológico na mensuração do conceito de religiosidade, possivelmente devido à característica subjetiva desse constructo. Contudo, verificou-se que o papel protetor contra o comportamento suicida exercido pela religiosidade, sofre variações de acordo com a cultura na qual está inserida, considerando que para algumas culturas o comportamento suicida não é visto com total desaprovação. Porém, a maioria dos estudos reforça a hipótese de que a religiosidade diminui o risco de comportamento suicida nos indivíduos que professam algum tipo de credo e, que participam de algum espaço religioso. Não foram encontrados, nesta pesquisa, estudos que medissem a associação, entre religiosidade e comportamento suicida, em religiões de matriz africana.
The role of religiosity in determining suicidal behavior is controversial, since there are tudies where its considered a protective factor and others, a risk factor. In this study, the authors conducted a systematic literature review to assess the relationship between religiosity and suicidal behavior. Among the 154 articles published in scientific journals initially identified in Medline, Lilacs, SciELO and PsycInfo, we selected 59 articles that focused on the association between religiosity and suicidal behavior. To evaluate the qualitative attributes of the articles, a Qualitative Evaluation Script was developed. The results show that most articles found presented a lack of methodological rigor in measuring the concept of religiosity, possibly due to the subjective characteristic of this construct. However, it was found that the protective role against suicidal behavior exercised by religion, varies according to the culture in which it operates, whereas in some cultures suicidal behavior is not seen with total disapproval. However, most studies support the hypothesis that religiosity reduces the risk of suicidal behavior in individuals who profess some kind of belief, and participates in some religious space. Were not found, in this research, studies which measure the association between religiosity and suicidal behavior in religions of African origin.

This study investigated the role of culture on suicidal thoughts and behaviors by examining (i) differences in explicit reporting of suicidal thoughts and behaviors, (ii) differences in implicit association of suicidal thoughts (iii) correlation of implicit-explicit reporting of suicidal thoughts and behaviors (iv) correlation between religion, religiosity level and reporting of suicidal thoughts between community samples from India and the USA. The study also tested the feasibility of using a measure of cognitive processing (i.e. the Implicit Association Task) as opposed to a self-report measure to identify implicit or hidden associations with suicidal thoughts or behaviors. Given the scarcity of available research on cross-cultural suicidal thoughts and behaviors, this study aims to bridge the current gap and provide evidence on the cultural variability in expression and development of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The study hypothesized a lower level of explicit reporting of suicidal thoughts and behaviors in the Indian sample (as compared to the USA sample), but equivalent or higher level of implicit association with death/suicide related stimuli. Further, a significant difference in the correlation between religiosity level and suicidal behaviors, moderated by religion, was expected between the two countries. Participants were recruited online using Mechanical Turk to target individuals from India and the USA. A self-report questionnaire format was used to capture information about the participants’ explicit reporting of suicidal thoughts and behaviors, associated risk factors, religious affiliations and country of birth. Implicit cognition towards suicide was measured using an online version of the Death/Suicide IAT. The results showed a significantly lower level of explicit reporting in India as compared to the USA sample but comparable implicit reporting levels. Further, the results also reported a significantly different correlation of religiosity and suicidal thoughts between the two country samples. This study provides initial evidence suggesting a significant role of cultural setting in the reporting and expression of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. This study is also the first to test the feasibility of using the Death/Suicide IAT for measuring implicit suicide related cognition in India.

Research on suicidal behaviors from non-Western countries is limited, and knowledge from Western studies may not be suitable for developing appropriate intervention strategies in other cultures. An understanding of the sociocultural context within which suicidal behaviors take place can provide valuable insight into the processes that contribute to risk of suicide. The aim of the present study was to estimate the prevalence and identify correlates of suicide ideation and suicide attempt in a population of college age youth in India. The cross-sectional study took place in Ahmedabad, the largest city in the western state of Gujarat. A total of 1,817 undergraduate college students aged 18-24 years completed a questionnaire with self-report measures assessing suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts in the past 12 months and over their lifetime, as well as potential risk factors. Independent risk factors were identified through logistic regression models. Overall, 11.7% of youth reported suicidal thoughts in their lifetime, and 4.0% reported lifetime suicide attempts. Results indicate that suicidal behaviors were significantly associated with economic stress, illness or mental health problems of a family member, experiences of caste discrimination or caste conflict, religious or political conflict, and depressive symptoms. The findings underscore the importance of sociocultural factors in determining vulnerability to suicidal behaviors in the Indian context and point to the need for culturally appropriate and locally informed approaches in mental health service delivery.
Force est de constater que la recherche sur les comportements suicidaires dans les pays non occidentaux ne revêt qu’une valeur limitée. Ainsi, les conclusions d’études occidentales ne peuvent pas toujours être transposées à d’autres cultures et servir à l’élaboration de stratégies d’intervention au sein de ces différentes cultures. Or, la compréhension du contexte socioculturel dans lequel les comportements suicidaires interviennent peut fournir de précieux renseignements sur les processus qui contribuent au risque de les comportements suicidaires. Le but de la présente étude était d’estimer la prévalence et identifier les corrélats de l’idéation suicidaire et des tentatives de suicide au sein d’une population de jeunes collégiens indiens. L’étude transversale a été menée à Ahmedabad, la plus grande ville de l’Ouest de l’État du Gujarat. Un total de 1817 étudiants de premier cycle âgés entre 18 à 24 ans ont rempli un questionnaire comportant des mesures auto déclarées évaluant les pensées suicidaires et les tentatives de suicide au cours des 12 derniers mois et tout au long de leur vie, ainsi que des facteurs de risque potentiels. En outre, des facteurs de risque indépendants ont été identifiés à l’aide de modèles de régression logistique. Globalement, 11,7% des jeunes ont rapportés avoir entretenu des pensées suicidaires au cours de leur vie, et 4,0% ont déclaré avoir fait une tentative de suicide durant leur vie. Les résultats indiquent que les comportements suicidaires sont associés de façon significative au stress économique, à la maladie ou aux problèmes de santé mentale d’un membre de la famille, aux expériences de discrimination de castes ou aux conflits parmi les castes, aux conflits religieux ou politiques, et aux symptômes dépressifs. Les résultats soulignent l’importance des facteurs socioculturels dans la détermination de la vulnérabilité au les comportements suicida

Aim: The aim of this literature review was to provide an overview of suicidal ideationand suicide attempt among immigrants in Europe. More specifically, the currentliterature review aimed to examine predictors of suicidal ideation and suicide attemptamong immigrants in Europe. Method: PsycINFO, PsycARTICLES and PubMed were used to generate existingarticles on the topic of interest. PRISMA flowchart was used to eliminate articles thatdid not meet the inclusion criteria. Results: Seventeen articles met the inclusion criteria. A number of environmental andsocial factors were found to predict suicidal ideation and suicide attempt amongimmigrants in Europe. These predictors included family conflict, health problems,substance abuse, low educational level and being adopted by a host inhabitant family.Socio-economical factor that predicted suicidal ideation and suicide attempt amongimmigrants in Europe was financial disadvantages. Finally, female immigrantsappeared to be a higher risk than male immigrants with regard to suicidal ideation andsuicide attempt. Furthermore, second-generation immigrants appear to be at higherrisk for suicide attempt than first-generation immigrants.Conclusion: There are a number of predictors that appear to predict suicidal ideationand suicide attempt among immigrants in Europe. Nationwide prevention programsfor new female immigrants are recommended.

Suicide is a complex phenomenon, which can be prevented if intensive and continuous research is being done to determine tendencies and to compile profiles of high-risk cases. Suicide prevention is currently a high priority in the South African Police Service (SAPS). In the Northern Cape various potential stressors, such as a high crime level, lack of resources and vast distances to travel are some of the challenges members of the police service face. Increased rates of post-traumatic stress, alcohol abuse, depression and suicides are found in research with police members. Research that was done in the SAPS shows that the number of suicide among police officers increased from 11 suicides per 10 000 during 1999 to 13 suicides per 10 000 during 2000. The numbers of suicides in the SAPS in the Northern Cape are of the highest of all the Provinces. Suicide ideation can be considered an early marker for more serious suicidal behaviour. However, there is a lack of empirical research systematically investigating suicide ideation and possible correlates thereof in the SAPS in the Northern Cape. This research investigated the relationship between suicide ideation, stress and coping within SAPS in the Northern Cape. The aim of this research was to determine the level of suicide ideation and possible correlates thereof. Further aims included predicting suicide ideation by meqs of stress and coping variables. The research method for this article consists out of a brief literature review and an empirical study. A cross sectional survey design was used. A random sample (n=274) as taken of members from police stations in the Northern Cape. The Adult Suicide Ideation Questionnaire (ASIQ), Police Stress Inventory (PSI), COPE Questionnaire and a biographical questionnaire were administered. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Results indicated that 3.28 % of the sample showed serious levels of suicide ideation. It was shown that previous suicide attempts, medical status, passive coping, problem-focussed coping, police stressors and job demands could be used to predict suicide ideation.

Objective: To examine the independent and joint relationships of poor subjective sleep quality and antepartum depression with suicidal ideation among pregnant women. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted among 641 pregnant women attending prenatal care clinics in Lima, Peru. Antepartumdepression and suicidal ideationwere assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 scale. Antepartumsubjective sleep quality was assessed using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI). Logistic regression procedures were performed to estimate odds ratios (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) adjusted for confounders. Results: Overall, the prevalence of suicidal ideation in this cohort was 16.8% and poor subjective sleep qualitywas more common among women endorsing suicidal ideation as compared to their counterpartswho did not (47.2% vs. 24.8%, Pb.001). After adjustment for confounders including maternal depression, poor subjective sleep quality (defined using the recommended criteria of PSQI global score of N5 vs. ≤5) was associated with a 1.7-fold increased odds of suicidal ideation (aOR=1.67; 95% CI 1.02–2.71). When assessed as a continuous variable, each 1-unit increase in the global PSQI score resulted in an 18% increase in odds for suicidal ideation, even after adjusting for depression (aOR=1.18; 95% CI 1.08–1.28). Women with both poor subjective sleep quality and depression had a 3.5-fold increased odds of suicidal ideation (aOR=3.48; 95% CI 1.96–6.18) as compared with those who had neither risk factor. Conclusion: Poor subjective sleep quality was associated with increased odds of suicidal ideation. Replication of these findings may promote investments in studies designed to examine the efficacy of sleep-focused interventions to treat pregnant women with sleep disorders and suicidal ideation.

This study is an analysis of adolescent risk behaviors contributing to an increased rate of suicidal ideation for 12 to 18 year olds. The Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System Survey (YRBSS) is an epidemiologic survey designed to monitor the prevalence of risky behaviors of adolescents in middle and high school1. The YRBSS is a complex sample survey with a three-stage cluster design. Multiple logistic regression is used to analyze the data, including methods of analysis to address issues in complex survey design. Results of this study indicate several different risk factors that influence the rate of suicidal ideation among adolescents, including alcohol and drug use, sexual risky behaviors, unhealthy weight loss methods, depressed mood, sex and race/ethnicity. The conclusions of this study indicate that many risk factors associated with suicidal ideation are behaviors that could be addressed with early intervention strategies to reduce the risk of suicidal ideation.

Researchers have previously identified substance use and borderline personality disorder as factors that increase risk for suicidal thoughts and behaviors. This study explored the relationship between these factors in samples of students and individuals seeking outpatient treatment. Supplemental data collected via the internet (MTurk) also looked at experiential avoidance (EA) with the Avoidance and Fusion Questionnaire for Youth. The Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-IV, Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test, Scale for Suicide Ideation, and Personality Assessment Inventory- Borderline Features Scale elicited information regarding severity and/or frequency of substance use, suicidal thoughts, and borderline features respectively. Additionally, the Psychiatric Diagnostic Screening Questionnaire was administered to the UNT sample. The UNT sample analyses indicate substance use moderates, strengthening, the relationship between borderline features and current suicidal thoughts. However, severity of suicidal thoughts was lower for individuals high in both borderline features and substance use disorder symptoms compared to those low in borderline features and high in substance use symptoms. The MTurk sample analyses suggest substance use functions as a mediator. A robust relationship existed between substance use severity and EA, showing substance use as a behavioral marker for EA. In conclusion, concurrent treatment of substance use and borderline personality features would be beneficial in reducing risk for suicidal thoughts. Further investigation into the role and utility of addressing EA is warranted.

Suicide has immediate and long-term negative effects on surviving family members and adverse effects in the school and community. Suicide rates for children and adolescents have increased in the United States since 2009. As part of suicide prevention efforts, information about risk factors and warning signs are typically addressed in schools, private organizations, and communities. In addition to academic literature for professional audiences, various therapeutic resources are available to assist those who grieve the suicide of a loved one. In particular, practical and easy-to-implement interventions are needed by those who offer support to suicidal individuals and survivors of suicide. Practical resources are needed to address suicide prevention, intervention, and postvention needs. This study is based on a questionnaire that was given to 250 registered individuals at an annual state suicide prevention training conference. Of those attending, 60 (24%) completed the questionnaire. Participants who did not have experience working with suicidal youth did not participate, so the actual participation rate was influenced by this factor. Questions explored the recommendations of mental health professionals (N=60) who worked with (a) suicidal youth, (b) siblings of youth who completed suicide, and/or (c) youth whose parent completed suicide. More specifically this study investigated specific strategies and resources for working with these three specific groups of survivors. Findings from this study indicated that mental health professionals recommend a variety of suicide prevention resources and strategies such as implementing evidenced-based prevention programs, accessing community resources, offering individual and group counseling for survivors, involving or creating support systems, and listening to the affected youth. Also, recommended therapeutic approaches should include an action plan where students are able to receive appropriate mental health services. Based on this study, mental health professionals may be more effective as they acquaint themselves with available resources such as counselors, school psychologists, and community services to comprehensively care for struggling individuals. Mental health professionals, educators, and staff members should obtain relevant information and utilize effective intervention models in order to better address the prevention, intervention, and postvention needs of surviving individuals.Recommendations are made for future research in identifying the combination of resources that are most helpful. Recommendations are also made regarding specific content and training strategies to more effectively prepare and equip professionals to engage more fully in effective and supportive suicide prevention efforts.

Suicide ideation is a growing phenomenon that can be observed in stressful environments such as those of a correctional official, and it is a cause for concern. Suicide ideation is seen as the first step of suicidal behaviour and refers to thoughts, cognitions and overt intent to kill oneself. The root causes for correctional officials experiencing such a severe state of hopelessness that they feel death must be the only escape, can be ascribed to different factors. The objective of this research is to establish the relationship between psychological strengths, stress and suicide ideation of employees of the Department of Correctional Services (DCS). Three concepts of psychological strength namely locus of control, sense of coherence and affect as independent variables, were compared, with suicide ideation as a dependant variable. The relationship between suicide ideation and stress as an independent variable was also established. A cross-sectional design was used. A simple random sample (n=157) was taken from correctional officers from a management area in the Freestate Province. The Work Locus of Control Scale, Orientation to Life Questionnaire, Affectometer 2, and the Adult Suicide Ideation Questionnaire were administered. In addition, the Correctional Officer Stress Inventory was developed and administered. Principal component and factor extraction with Oblique rotation, Cronbach alpha and inter-item correlation coefficients, factor analysis, a discriminant analysis and a stepwise multiple regression analysis were used to analyse the data. Results showed that positive affect and external locus of control were associated with suicide ideation.

Suicide risk is increased for previous suicide attempters, who may be vulnerable to exacerbating factors such as daily hassles; yet, individual-level, adaptive characteristics may ameliorate risk. We examined the influence of daily hassles on suicidal ideation and the moderating role of spiritual well-being and its subscales of religious and existential well-being. In our cross-sectional study, 148 African-American female suicide attempters were recruited from a large, urban hospital and completed the Survey of Recent Life Events, Spiritual Well-Being Scale, and Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation. Religious and existential well-being moderated the association between hassles and suicidal thoughts; this relationship was weaker for individuals with greater levels of spiritual well-being. Historically, spiritual beliefs have been important to the African-American community and their promotion may effectively prevent additional thoughts of suicide by attempters experiencing hassles of daily life.

Suicide is a phenomenon present in all stages of life, however, the World Health Organization points to a significant increase in suicide rates among teenagers. Adolescence can be understood as a cultural phenomenon that marks the transition of roles and responsibilities from childhood to adulthood. The literature reports that the typical events of adolescence may contribute to the occurrence of suicide at this time of life. The purpose of this dissertation is to describe aspects related to suicide rates, and identify the incidence of ideations and suicide attempts among adolescents living in the city of Goiânia. For this purpose, three chapters will be presented organized in article format. The first chapter deals with a systematic review of the literature on suicide in adolescence. In this study, we analyzed 9 articles, 2 theses and 2 dissertations. It could be observed that the list of factors associated with suicide is extensive. The second chapter aims to describe the suicide rates of teenagers living in Goiânia from 2003 to 2013, and to investigate associated factors. For this purpose, the data of 10 to 19 yearold subjects provided by the Mortality Information System were analyzed - SIM, part of Ministry of Health responsible for the provision of information on mortality in Brazil. The results indicate a higher incidence of suicide among adolescents between 15-19 years old. However, it emphasizes a trend of increasing suicide among adolescent males between 10-14 years old. The third chapter aims to carry out an assessment of the prevalence of suicidal ideation and attempted suicide among teenagers in the city of Goiania in 2013. Also in this chapter, we evaluate the relationship between ideation and attempted suicide with self-reported problems behaviors through the Youth Self Report - YSR. The results indicate an association between ideation and suicide attempt with all behavioral problems. We also found that attempted suicide rates are higher than the rates of suicidal ideation among adolescents in this county. It is emphasized the importance of studies that understand the variables involved in suicidal behavior of adolescents, since it is the first step for the implementation of contention measures for this phenomenon.
O suicídio é um fenômeno presente em todas as etapas da vida, entretanto, a Organização Mundial de Saúde chama a atenção para um aumento significativo nas taxas de suicídio entre os adolescentes. A adolescência pode ser compreendida como um fenômeno cultural que marca a troca de papéis e responsabilidades da infância para os papéis e responsabilidades típicos da vida adulta. A literatura relata que os acontecimentos típicos da adolescência podem contribuir para a ocorrência do suicídio neste momento da vida. A proposta desta dissertação é descrever aspectos relacionados às taxas de suicídio, bem como identificar a incidência de ideações e tentativas de suicídio entre adolescentes residentes na cidade de Goiânia. Para tanto, serão apresentados três capítulos organizados no formato de artigo. O primeiro capítulo trata de uma revisão sistemática da literatura sobre o suicídio na adolescência. Neste estudo, foram analisados 9 artigos, 2 teses e 2 dissertações. Foi possível observar que é vasta a lista de fatores associados ao suicídio. O segundo capítulo tem por objetivo descrever as taxas de suicídio de adolescentes residentes na cidade de Goiânia durante o período de 2003 a 2013, bem como investigar características associadas. Para tanto, foram analisados os dados sobre suicídio de sujeitos de 10 a 19 anos disponibilizados pela Sistema de Informações sobre Mortalidade - SIM, órgão do Ministério da Saúde responsável pela disponibilização das informações sobre mortalidade no Brasil. Os resultados indicam uma maior incidência do suicídio entre os adolescentes de 15 a 19 anos. Entretanto, ressalta-se uma tendência de aumento do suicídio entre adolescentes do sexo masculino de 10 a 14 anos. O terceiro capítulo tem por objetivo realizar uma avaliação da prevalência de ideação e tentativa de suicídio entre os adolescentes da cidade de Goiânia no ano de 2013. Ainda neste capítulo, avalia-se a relação entre ideação e tentativa de suicídio com o autorrelato de problemas de comportamentos por meio do Youth Self Report - YSR. Os resultados indicam uma associação entre ideação e tentativa de suicídio com todos os problemas de comportamento. Encontraram-se também taxas de tentativa de suicídio superiores às taxas de ideação suicida entre adolescentes deste município. Ressalta-se a importância de estudos que compreendam as variáveis envolvidas no comportamento suicida de adolescentes, uma vez que este é o primeiro passo para que medidas de contenção deste fenômeno sejam implementadas.

Abstract The aim of this thesis was to explore the associations between the use of nervous system medications and suicidal ideation and behaviour in various different diagnostic groups in a large population-based cohort. Information on prescribed antipsychotic, antidepressant, benzodiazepine and antiepileptic medications within the Northern Finland Birth Cohort 1966 was collected from the register of the Social Insurance Institution of Finland and from a postal questionnaire sent to all cohort members in 1997. The presence of suicidal ideation and depression and anxiety symptoms was assessed via the Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 questionnaire in 1997. Data on suicides were collected from the cause-of-death statistics and on suicide attempts from the Finnish Care Register for Health Care in a 15-year follow up. The use of antipsychotic, antidepressant, or benzodiazepine medication was associated with increased suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and suicides. Antiepileptic medication was not associated with increased suicidality. The polypharmacy of nervous system medications was associated with increased suicidality. All nervous system medications were associated with increased severity of depression and anxiety symptoms. When depression and anxiety symptoms were taken into account, most of the associations between medication and suicidal ideation were statistically non-significant. Regarding specific groups, among those who did not have psychosis, high doses of antipsychotic medication correlated particularly with increased suicidal ideation even when other symptoms of depression and anxiety were taken into account. Among those with insomnia, the use of antidepressant medication associated with increased suicidal ideation also when other symptoms were taken into account. Although nervous system medication is associated with increased suicidal ideation, the association with other symptoms is also strong, and therefore it could not be stated that medication associates specifically with suicidal ideation. However, certain groups, i.e., non-psychotic subjects with high doses of antipsychotic medication, or subjects with insomnia and using antidepressant medication, should be closely monitored as they could be more vulnerable to suicidal ideation
Tiivistelmä Tämän väitöstutkimuksen tarkoituksena oli tutkia hermostoon vaikuttavien lääkkeiden, lähinnä psykoosilääkkeiden, masennuslääkkeiden, bentsodiatsepiinien sekä epilepsialääkkeiden, yhteyttä itsetuhoisiin ajatuksiin, itsemurhayrityksiin ja itsemurhiin. Aihetta tutkittiin eri diagnoosiluokissa suuressa väestöaineistossa, Pohjois-Suomen vuoden 1966 syntymäkohortissa. Tieto tutkimushenkilöiden lääkkeenkäytöstä vuodelta 1997 kerättiin Kelan lääkeostorekisteristä sekä postikyselyn avulla. Itsetuhoisten ajatusten ja muiden masennus- ja ahdistusoireiden vakavuutta mitattiin Hopkins Symptom Checklist-25 -kyselyn avulla vuonna 1997. Tieto itsemurhista kerättiin 15 vuoden seurannassa kuolinsyyrekisteristä ja tieto itsemurhayrityksistä hoitoilmoitusrekisteristä. Psykoosilääkkeiden, masennuslääkkeiden ja bentsodiatsepiinien käyttö oli yhteydessä lisääntyneisiin itsetuhoisiin ajatuksiin, itsemurhayrityksiin ja itsemurhiin. Epilepsialääkkeet eivät liittyneet itsetuhoisuuteen. Usean hermostoon vaikuttavan lääkkeen yhtäaikainen käyttö oli yhteydessä lisääntyneeseen itsetuhoisuuteen. Kaikki hermostoon vaikuttavat lääkkeet liittyivät lisääntyneisiin masennus- ja ahdistusoireisiin. Kun lääkityksen yhteys masennus- ja ahdistusoireisiin otettiin huomioon, lääkkeet eivät olleet erityisesti yhteydessä itsetuhoisiin ajatuksiin. Diagnostisten ryhmien välillä ei ollut eroa hermostoon vaikuttavien lääkkeiden ja itsemurhayritysten tai itsemurhien välisessä yhteydessä. Henkilöillä, joilla ei ole psykoosia, suuremmat psykoosilääkeannokset olivat yhteydessä itsetuhoisten ajatusten vakavuuteen kun muiden masennus- ja ahdistusoireiden vakavuus otettiin huomioon. Unettomuudesta kärsivillä henkilöillä masennuslääkkeen käyttö oli liittyi lisääntyneisiin itsetuhoisiin ajatuksiin kun muut oireet huomioitiin. Hermostoon vaikuttavat lääkkeet ovat yhteydessä lisääntyneisiin itsetuhoisiin ajatuksiin, mutta ne ovat myös vahvasti yhteydessä muihin masennus- ja ahdistusoireisiin. Tietyt henkilöt voivat kuitenkin olla erityisen herkkiä nimenomaan itsetuhoisille ajatuksille, ja heitä tulisi seurata erityisen tiiviisti. Tällaisia ovat henkilöt, joilla ei ole psykoosia, mutta jotka käyttävät suuria psykoosilääkeannoksia, sekä vakavasta unettomuudesta kärsivät henkilöt, jotka käyttävät masennuslääkettä

Streszczenie:
Despite becoming a greater public health concern, the suicide rate among adolescents has not decreased significantly in recent years (Center for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2015). In fact, suicide is the second leading cause of death for individuals between 12-18 years (CDC, 2015). Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), the deliberate destruction of one’s own body tissue without suicidal intent and for reasons not socially sanctioned (Nock, 2009), has been identified as a robust predictor of suicide, above and beyond other risk factors such as depression and hopelessness (Asarnow et al., 2011; Guan, Fox, & Prinstein, 2012). Therefore, understanding risk factors for NSSI is an important area of research not only for prevention of NSSI, but also suicide. Recently, an association between poor sleep and suicide ideation in adolescents has been highlighted (Franic, Kralj, Marcinko, Knez, & Kardum, 2014; Park, Yoo, & Kim, 2013). However, very little attention, both globally and within the United States, has been given to understanding the impact sleep may have on NSSI. Given the strong role that emotion regulation has been identified as having in both poor sleep and NSSI separately, it is important to look at the interaction of these two factors in the prediction of NSSI. Data were collected from 154 adolescents in high school. Results indicated that poor sleep was a significant predictor of both NSSI engagement and self-reported suicide ideation. Additionally, emotion regulation successfully moderated the relationship between poor sleep quality and suicide ideation severity. Results support that sleep is an important risk factor for NSSI engagement and suicide ideation and that emotion regulation may play an important role in strengthening the relationship for between sleep and suicide ideation only. These findings suggest that clinicians should be aware of and work with their clients on both emotion regulation and sleep quality to reduce risk of NSSI engagement and suicide ideation.

Este trabalho teve como objectivo o estudo da ideação suicida e da sintomatologia psicológica (depressiva e ansiosa) em sujeitos alcoólicos (n=31) em tratamento numa comunidade terapêutica e em sujeitos cocainómanos (n=30) em tratamento de ambulatório, pretendendo verificar em qual destes dois grupos de toxicodependentes a ideação suicida e a sintomatologia psicológica era mais elevada. A metodologia utilizada foi um Questionário Sociodemográfico, o Inventário de Sintomas Psicológicos (BSI) e o Questionário de Ideação Suicida (QIS). A análise dos resultados revelaram que a ideação suicida e o tipo de adição (cocaína e álcool) não apresentam diferenças estatisticamente significativas. Por outro lado, os resultados referentes à sintomatologia depressiva e ansiosa apresentam diferenças estatisticamente significativas.
ABSTRACT: This objective of these work is to study of suicidal ideation and psychological symptomatology (depression and anxiety) on alcoholic subjects (n=31) in treatment in a therapeutic community and on subjects consumers cocaine (n=30) in outpatient treatment, intending to check which one of these two groups of drug are addicts suicidal ideation and which psychological symptoms was higher. The methodology used was a Demographic Questionnaire, the Psychological symptom Inventory (BSI) and suicidal ideation questionnaire (QIS). The analysis of the results showed that suicidal ideation and the type of addition (cocaine and alcohol) aren’t statistically significant differences. On the other hand, the results for depressive and anxious symptoms are statistically significant differences. Keywords: Addiction,

Suicidal behaviors have continued to increase in the United States (U.S.) Army population since the beginning of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Suicide rates are higher in men compared to women; yet, the rate of suicidal ideation is higher in women than men. The purpose of this study was to determine if there is a correlation between suicidal ideation and protective factors, if social support and resiliency are different for men and women within the U.S. Army population, and if gender acts as a moderating variable between suicidal ideation and protective factors. The interpersonal-psychological theory of suicidal behavior was used as the foundation for this study. Secondary data were collected from the U.S. Army Public Health Center. After removing missing responses, the total sample size for this study was N = 3,446. Chi-square, independent samples t test, and multiple logistic regressions were used to determine the relationship between gender, suicidal ideation, resiliency, and social support in the U.S. Army active duty population. The percentage who reported suicidal ideation was 3.6% versus 4.9% for males and females, respectively. Social support was statistically significantly correlated with suicidal ideation (p = 0.002) while resiliency was not statistically significantly correlated with suicidal ideation (p = 0.68). Neither scale was effective in detecting differences among gender groups. Refined instruments are needed for evaluation of small changes in regard to protective factors. To promote social change, this study can be used to enhance knowledge about protective factors and gender in the context of the suicidal process, thus furthering the knowledge about how to prevent suicide in the U.S. Army population.

Streszczenie:
Bakgrund: Suicid innebär att en människa avsiktligt och självförvållat skadar sig vilket leder till döden. Snabba och oförväntat försämrade tillstånd och död kan upplevas som oro och stress hos sjuksköterskan. Samtidigt är det sjuksköterskans plikt att möta, samtala och tolka patienten då det är i vårdrelationen en förståelse kan skapas för patientens suicidtankar. Attityder, kontext, tolkning av människosyn präglas av hur sjuksköterskans förhåller sig till den suicidala patienten. Syfte: Syftet var att beskriva sjuksköterskors upplevelser och erfarenheter i relation till suicid och den suicidnära patienten. Metod: En systematisk integrativ litteraturöversikt har använts som metod. Både kvantitativa och kvalitativa artiklar har hämtats från databaserna Cinahl, PubMed och PsycInfo. Totalt inkluderades 13 artiklar i resultatet. Resultat: Tre huvudteman teman framkom i resultatet, Sjuksköterskans känslor i mötet med suicid, närhet och distans, samt att förstå suicidhandlingen. Känslor av skuld beskrevs som en konsekvent genomgående i mötet med den suicidala patienten. Även svårigheter i att reglera närhet och distans till patienten medförde en obalans i att distansera sig kontra att närma sig i mötet. Kontext och sociokulturell tillhörighet påverkade relationen mellan sjuksköterskan och patienten. Diskussion: I resultatdiskussionen har delar av resultatet diskuterats utifrån Patrica Benners omvårdnadsteori, det femte och sista stadiet. Det är viktigt att erbjuda sjuksköterskans möjlighet till vidare utbildning i bemötandet men också i de egna psykologiska processer som mötet med negativa känslor och eventuella trauma kan innebära.
Background: Suicide means that a person intentionally and self-inflicted injures himself, which leads to death. Rapid and unexpectedly worsening conditions and deaths can be experienced as nurses' anxiety and stress. At the same time, it is the nurse's duty to meet, talk and interpret the patient as it is in the care relationship that an understanding can be created for the patient's suicidal thoughts. Attitudes, context, interpretation of human view are characterized by how the nurse's attitude to the suicidal patient. Aim: To describe nurses' experiences and experiences in relation to suicide and the suicidal patient. Method: A systematic integrative literature review has been selected. Both quantitative and qualitative articles have been used from the databases Cinahl, Pubmed and PsycInfo Knalf's integrative. Theoretical starting point was based on Patricia Benner's nursing theory where Benner's last and fifth stages were discussed. Results: Three main themes emerged in the result, Nurse's feelings in the meeting with suicide, proximity and distance, and understanding the suicide act. Feelings of guilt were described as consistent throughout the encounter with the suicidal patient. Difficulties in regulating proximity and distance to the patient also led to an imbalance in distancing versus approaching the meeting. Context and sociocultural belonging influenced the relationship between the nurse and the patient. Conclusions: In the result discussion, parts of the result have been discussed based on Patrica Benner's nursing theory, the fifth and last stage. It is important to offer the nurse's opportunity for further education in the treatment, but also in the own psychological processes that the encounter with negative emotions and possible trauma can entail.

Streszczenie:
A productive and healthy police force is important for the economic growth and stability and the development of a country. In South Africa, various potential stressors, such as a high crime level. organisational transformation and a lack of resources challenge members of the police services. Increased rates of illness, post-traumatic stress, burnout, alcohol abuse and suicides, as well as decreased levels of job satisfaction and job performance as compared to norms for the general population are found in research with police members. The number of suicides in the South African Police Service (SAPS) is more than five times that of suicide rates reported in the literature for other police populations. Suicide ideation constitutes one aspect of suicidal behaviour. Suicide ideation, which refers to the thoughts and cognitions about suicidal behaviour and intent, may be considered an early marker of more serious suicidal behaviour. However, there is a lack of empirical research systematically investigating suicide ideation and possible correlates thereof in South Africa. This research investigated the relationship between suicide ideation, stress and coping in the SAPS. The aim of this research was to determine national levels of suicide ideation, stress and coping and the differences between various demographic groups (race, rank, province, language group and size of station). Further aims included the validation of a measure of stress and coping in the SAPS. The research method for each of the four articles consists of a brief literature review and an empirical study. A cross-sectional survey design was used. Random samples (N = 2396 for research articles 1 and 2, and N = 1431 for research articles 3 and 4) were taken from police stations in nine provinces. Stations were divided into small, medium and large stations. All available police members in small and medium stations were included in the sample, while in large stations random samples were taken according to sex and race. The Adult Suicide Ideation Questionnaire(ASIQ), Police Stress Inventory (PSI), COPE questionnaire, a measure of social support and a biographical questionnaire were administered. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Results indicated that 8,64% of the sample showed serious levels of suicide ideation. Previous suicide attempts and having previously been charged in terms of the disciplinary code were significant predictors of current levels of suicide ideation. It was shown that members that scored above the 97th percentile on suicide ideation are Black, from the ranks of sergeant and inspector, and from the Free State and small and medium stations. Concerning the Police Stress Inventory, three internally consistent factors were extracted by means of principal components factor analysis. These factors were Job Demands, Lack of Job Resources and Inherent Police Stressors. Differences regarding stress factors were found between different ranks, races, language groups, provinces and different-sized stations. A measure of coping was validated in the SAPS. Four factors were extracted, namely Active Coping, Avoidance, Seeking Emotional Support and Turning to Religion. Differences were shown between the coping strategies of different ranks, races, provinces and according to size of stations. A stepwise discriminant analysis showed that previous suicide attempt, coping strategies (non-active coping, turning to religion and seeking emotional support) and lacking social support (support from psychological services of the SAPS and friends not in the SAPS), marital status, marital satisfaction, scholastic education, job satisfaction, province, race and physical exercise could be used to predict suicide ideation. It is recommended that the SAPS review current suicide prevention programs to ensure their suitability to all levels of the organisation. The most prominent stressors in need of attention, namely officers not doing their job, poor quality equipment, inadequate salary and seeing criminals go free, were identified and need to be managed by the SAPS. Certain members could benefit from training in effective coping strategies. By way of conclusion, recommendations for future research are made.

Streszczenie:
The economic burden of mental illness costs Canada billions of dollars every year. Millions of people suffer from mental illness, and only a fraction receives adequate treatment. Identifying people with mental illness requires initiation from those in need, available medical services, and professional experts’ time allocation. These resources might not be available all the time. The common practice is to rely on clinical data, which is generally collected after the illness is developed and reported. Moreover, such clinical data is incomplete and hard to obtain. An alternative data source is conducting surveys through phone calls, interviews, or mail, but this is costly and time-consuming. Social media analysis has brought advances in leveraging population data to understand mental health problems. Thus, analyzing social media posts can be an essential alternative for identifying mental disorders throughout the Canadian population. Big data research of social media may also endorse standard surveillance approaches and provide decision-makers with usable information. More precisely, social media analysis has shown promising results for public health assessment and monitoring. In this research, we explore the task of automatically analysing social media textual data using Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to detect signs of mental health disorders that need attention, such as depression and suicide ideation. Considering the lack of comprehensive annotated data in this field, we propose a methodology for transfer learning to utilize the information hidden in a training sample and leverage it on a different dataset to choose the best-generalized model to be applied at the population level. We also present evidence that ML models designed to predict suicide ideation using Reddit data can utilize the knowledge they encoded to make predictions on Twitter data, even though the two platforms differ in the purpose, structure, and limitations. In our proposed models, we use feature engineering with supervised machine learning algorithms (such as SVM, LR, RF, XGBoost, and GBDT), and we compare their results with those of deep learning algorithms (such as LSTM, Bi-LSTM, and CNNs). We adopt the CNN model for depression classification that obtained the highest F1-score on the test dataset (0.898) and 0.941 recall. This model is later used to estimate the depression level of the population. For suicide ideation detection, we used the CNN model with pre-trained fastText word embeddings and linguistic features (LIWC). The model achieved an F1-score of 0.936 and a recall of 0.88 to predict suicide ideation at the user-level on the test set. To compare our models’ predictions with official statics, we used 2015-2016 population based Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS) on Mental Health and Well-being conducted by Statistics Canada. The data is used to estimate depression and suicidality in Canadian provinces and territories. For depression, (n=53,050) respondents filled in the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) from 8 provinces/territories. Each survey respondent with a score ≥ 10 on the PHQ-9 was interpreted as having moderate to severe depression because this score is frequently used as a screening cut-point. The weighted percentage of depression prevalence during 2015 for females and males of the age between 15 to 75 was 11.5% and 8.1%, respectively (with 54.2% females and 45.8% males). Our model was applied on a population-representative dataset that contains 24,251 Twitter users who posted 1,735,200 tweets during 2015 with a Pearson correlation of 0.88 for both sex and age within the seven provinces and NT territory included in the CCHS. An age correlation of 0.95 was calculated for age and sex (separately) and our model estimated that 10% of the sample dataset has evidence of depression (58.3% females and 41.7% males). For the second task, suicide ideation, Statistics Canada (2015) estimated the total number of people who reported serious suicidal thoughts as 3,396,700 persons, i.e., 9.514% of the total population, whereas our models estimated 10.6% of the population sample were at risk of suicide ideation (59% females and 41% males). The Pearson correlation coefficients between the actual suicide ideation within the last 12 months and the predicted model for each province per age, sex, and both more than 0.62, which indicates a reasonable correlation.

Streszczenie:
Suicide ideation, suicide attempts, and suicide (SISAS) are increased in poststroke patients, yet not everyone who has suffered a stroke is at risk for SISAS. Two risk factors for SISAS, marital status and burdensomeness, may be of particular relevance to poststroke patients. The majority of poststroke patients have a disability that may require help from a family member with basic functions such as dressing and bathing. It was not known if being married decreases risk of SISAS for stoke victims as shown in studies with nonpoststroke subjects or increases risk for SISAS due to its influence on feelings of burdensomeness. Guided by the interpersonal psychological theory of suicidal behavior, the purpose of this study was to examine if marital status moderates the association between burdensomeness (measured by disability level) and suicide ideation. A secondary analysis was performed of the Outcome and Assessment Information Set data, which was collected by the National Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. A data sample of 1,596,962 records was obtained. This data sample included 5% of the Home Health Outcome Information and Assessment Set for the year 2008. Of those, 8,6381 (5.4%) individuals had suffered a stroke. The results suggested partial support for the hypotheses presented in this study. However, a significant moderation was found. As burdensomeness increased, suicide ideation increased in patients who were married. High levels of burdensomeness increase suicide risk to those who are married. Identifying a vulnerable population can provide potential positive social change by serving as basis for future research regarding program implementation in reducing suicide rates.

The suicide rate among African-American youths has significantly increased in recent years. Studies have indicated that racism, sexism, and homophobia put African-American adolescent lesbians (AAALs) at high risk for suicide. Earlier studies recognized the importance of adult support for adults, but the relationship between the AAAL suicide rate and the level of adult support has never been formally studied. Based on social support theory, this survey study examined the relationship between adult social support and attitudes toward homosexuality (as the independent variables) and suicidality and hopelessness (as the dependent variables) in a convenience sample of 200 self-identified 13-to-19-year-old AAALs. Data were collected using the Duke Social Support and Stress Scale (DUSOCS), the Homosexuality Attitude Scale (HAS), the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSS), and the Beck Hopelessness Scale (BHS). Descriptive statistics and ANOVA correlation and regression analyses were conducted using SPSS 20. The results showed a statistically significant negative relationship between social support and attitude toward homosexuality and the dependent variable, suicidal ideation; a significant negative relationship between social support and hopelessness; and a significant, but weak, positive relationship between social support and attitude toward homosexuality. Lack of family and social support is associated with social isolation and increased risk of suicide among homosexual youths. Finding ways to increase family and social support for AAALs has the potential to promote positive social change by reducing suicidal ideation in this at-risk group.

Individuals who self-harm are at an increased risk of suicide ideation and attempts. Although risk of completed suicide for clinical adults who self-harm is often minimalized, individuals who experience suicide ideation are at a heightened risk for suicide attempts. It is therefore important to understand the risk factors associated with suicide ideation in order to identify those most at risk. The aim of this project was to determine the prevalence, risk factors and main differences associated with self-harm in a clinical population presenting with and without suicide ideation. The study was conducted using 675 patient review forms from a large psychiatric clinic in Western Australia. Logistic regression was used to determine if socio-demographic factors (age, gender, socio-economic status), acute alcohol use, and affect (deflated mood, anxiety) at the time of presentation were associated with an increased risk of self-harm behaviour. Self-harm with and without suicide ideation was found to be associated with female gender, younger age groups (<18 years), and alcohol use. In addition, suicide ideation was associated with a deflated mood. Compared to females who self-harm, male clinical adults were significantly more likely to present with co-morbid suicidal ideation than not. The findings support the need for more consistent and informative definitions of self-harm and suicidal behaviour. In particular, the factors associated with suicide ideation should be explored in young people/adults presenting with self-harm, and strategies targeting the antecedents and concomitants of self-harm behaviour, such as negative affective states and alcohol consumption, should be employed.
