Several socio-demographic correlates, including age of adolescents, family economic status, parental marital status, parental occupational status and parental educational level of adolescent suicidal ideation among Chinese adolescents (N = 5,557) were examined in this study. The results showed that older adolescents had a significantly higher level of suicidal ideation than did younger ones. Adolescents living in non-intact families had a significantly higher level of suicidal ideation than those in intact families. Adolescents with lower socioeconomic status (indexed by economic disadvantage, parental occupational status, and parental educational attainment) displayed higher levels of suicidal ideation than did adolescents with higher suicidal ideation. Although these socio-demographic correlates were significantly related to suicidal ideation, the practical significance was not high.
本研究调查了中国青少年(N = 5557)自杀意念的若干社会人口学相关因素,包括青少年年龄、家庭经济状况、父母婚姻状况、父母职业状况以及父母教育水平。结果显示,年龄较大的青少年自杀意念水平显著高于年龄较小的青少年。生活在不完整家庭中的青少年自杀意念水平显著高于完整家庭中的青少年。社会经济地位较低的青少年(以经济劣势、父母职业状况和父母教育程度为指标)自杀意念水平高于社会经济地位较高的青少年。尽管这些社会人口学相关因素与自杀意念显著相关,但其实际意义并不高。
