Risk for suicide is elevated among older men. We examined whether value placed on autonomy amplifies the relation between depressive symptoms and suicide risk differently for older men and women. Participants were 98 community-dwelling older adults, M age 73.6 (SD = 8.6), 65.1% female, 93.1% White. Questionnaires measured suicide risk (SBQ-R), depressive symptoms (CESD), and value placed on autonomy (PSI-II autonomy). Among men, depressive symptoms were associated with suicide risk only when PSI-II autonomy was elevated. Among women, greater depressive symptoms were associated with suicide risk at all levels of PSI-II autonomy. Further research on attitudes toward autonomy is warranted.
老年男性的自杀风险较高。我们研究了对自主性的重视程度是否会以不同方式放大老年男性和女性抑郁症状与自杀风险之间的关系。研究对象为98名居住在社区的老年人，平均年龄73.6岁（标准差 = 8.6），女性占65.1%，白人占93.1%。通过问卷测量自杀风险（SBQ-R）、抑郁症状（CESD）以及对自主性的重视程度（PSI-II自主性）。在男性中，只有当PSI-II自主性较高时，抑郁症状才与自杀风险相关。在女性中，在PSI-II自主性的所有水平上，抑郁症状越严重与自杀风险的相关性越高。有必要对自主性态度进行进一步研究。
