Psycho-educational programs are among the most commonly applied suicide prevention approaches for young people. This study examined the effectiveness of these programs in a controlled study by assessing the effect on knowledge, attitudes, coping and hopelessness.
Fourteen- to 18-year-old students were administered structured questionnaires before and after the program to assess the effect on knowledge, attitudes, coping and hopelessness.
The program had no effect on coping styles and levels of hopelessness. However, a positive effect on knowledge could be identified and an interaction effect of the program with gender on attitudes was also found. A negative impact of the program could not be found. Results indicated effects of gender and pre-test on knowledge, attitudes and coping.
The findings from this study suggest that psycho-educational programs in schools may influence knowledge about suicide and attitudes towards suicidal persons but may not affect the use of coping styles or levels of hopelessness.
心理教育项目是针对年轻人最常用的自杀预防方法之一。本研究通过评估对知识、态度、应对方式和绝望感的影响，在一项对照研究中检验了这些项目的有效性。
在项目前后，对14至18岁的学生进行结构化问卷调查，以评估对知识、态度、应对方式和绝望感的影响。
该项目对应对方式和绝望感水平没有影响。然而，可以确定对知识有积极影响，并且还发现该项目与性别在态度上存在交互作用。未发现该项目有负面影响。结果表明性别和预测试对知识、态度和应对方式有影响。
本研究结果表明，学校中的心理教育项目可能会影响关于自杀的知识和对自杀者的态度，但可能不会影响应对方式的使用或绝望感水平。
