Using the California Quality of Life surveys, we examined suicidal ideation and attempts in 129 lesbian, gay, and bisexual (LGB) veterans and in 315 heterosexual veterans in 2008-2009 and 2012-2013. Although there were no significant differences in the past 12-month suicidal ideation and lifetime attempts, LGB veterans had higher odds of lifetime suicidal ideation than heterosexual veterans (adjusted odds ratio = 3.00; 95% confidence interval = 1.38, 6.53). Suicide assessment and prevention efforts in LGB veterans could benefit from a life-course perspective regarding suicide risk.
利用加利福尼亚生活质量调查,我们在2008 - 2009年和2012 - 2013年对129名女同性恋、男同性恋和双性恋(LGB)退伍军人以及315名异性恋退伍军人的自杀意念和自杀未遂情况进行了调查。尽管在过去12个月的自杀意念和终生自杀未遂情况方面没有显著差异,但LGB退伍军人终生自杀意念的几率高于异性恋退伍军人(调整后的优势比 = 3.00;95%置信区间 = 1.38, 6.53)。LGB退伍军人的自杀评估和预防工作可从关于自杀风险的生命历程视角中受益。
