Adolescent suicidal ideation and its relationship to other variables was tapped by a self-report questionnaire administered to 88 high school seniors. Eighteen percent responded positively to the statement "sometimes I feel suicidal." Those who reported suicidal ideation were found to differ from those who did not on a number of variables, including family relationships (quality of relationship with mother, intimacy with parents, and closeness to siblings), family history of depression (maternal depression), peer relations (quality of peer relationships, popularity, and number of friends), emotional well-being (happiness, anger, and depression), drug use (cigarettes, marijuana, and cocaine), and grade point average. Stepwise regression indicated that happiness explained 46% of the variance in suicidal ideation, and number of friends, anger, and marijuana use explained an additional 20%, for a total of 66% of the variance. While 34% of the variance remained unexplained, it is suggested that the questions used to measure these four variables be included in global screenings to identify adolescents at risk for suicidal ideation.
通过对88名高三学生进行的一份自我报告问卷，了解青少年自杀意念及其与其他变量的关系。18%的学生对“有时我有自杀念头”这一陈述给出肯定回答。结果发现，报告有自杀意念的学生在一些变量上与未报告的学生不同，这些变量包括家庭关系（与母亲关系的质量、与父母的亲密度以及与兄弟姐妹的亲近程度）、抑郁症家族史（母亲患抑郁症情况）、同伴关系（同伴关系质量、受欢迎程度和朋友数量）、情绪健康状况（幸福感、愤怒和抑郁）、药物使用（香烟、大麻和可卡因）以及平均绩点。逐步回归分析表明，幸福感解释了自杀意念变异的46%，朋友数量、愤怒和大麻使用又额外解释了20%，总共解释了66%的变异。虽然仍有34%的变异无法解释，但建议在全面筛查中纳入用于测量这四个变量的问题，以识别有自杀意念风险的青少年。
