Friendship factors have been implicated in adolescent suicidality, but this relationship has not been verified across ethnicities. This study examined suicidality and friendship problems (i.e., social isolation, poor friendship quality, friends' school disconnection, and friends' delinquency) among Mexican American adolescents, an understudied, vulnerable group in terms of suicidality. Three hundred thirty-eight community adolescents, two-thirds of whom were educationally at-risk, participated in the study. Suicidal ideation and behavior rates were high, particularly among girls. Friends' school disconnectedness increased girls' odds for suicidal ideation by 13%. This association was even greater for girls in good academic standing. Friendship problems were not associated with suicidality in boys. Ethnic identity was a minor factor in suicidal ideation, and only for girls. These findings confirm, among Mexican American adolescents, the role of gender in the relationship between friendship and suicidality.
友谊因素与青少年自杀倾向有关，但这种关系在不同种族中尚未得到验证。本研究考察了墨西哥裔美国青少年的自杀倾向和友谊问题（即社交孤立、友谊质量差、朋友与学校脱节以及朋友犯罪），该群体在自杀倾向方面是一个研究不足的脆弱群体。338 名社区青少年参与了这项研究，其中三分之二有学业风险。自杀意念和行为发生率很高，尤其是女孩。朋友与学校脱节使女孩自杀意念的几率增加了 13%。对于学业成绩好的女孩来说，这种关联更为显著。友谊问题与男孩的自杀倾向无关。种族认同在女孩的自杀意念中是一个次要因素。这些发现证实了在墨西哥裔美国青少年中，性别在友谊和自杀倾向之间的关系中起着重要作用。
