The objective of this study was to provide a review of studies on suicide in children aged 14 years and younger. Articles were identified through a systematic search of Scopus, MEDLINE, and PsychINFO. Key words were "children, suicide, psychological autopsy, and case-study." Additional articles were identified through manual search of reference lists and discussion with colleagues. Fifteen published articles were identified, 8 psychological autopsy studies (PA), and 7 retrospective case-study series. Suicide incidence and gender asymmetry increases with age. Hanging is the most frequent method. Lower rates of psychopathology are evident among child suicides compared to adolescents. Previous suicide attempts were an important risk factor. Children were less likely to consume alcohol prior to suicide. Parent-child conflicts were the most common precipitant.
本研究的目的是对14岁及以下儿童自杀相关研究进行综述。通过对Scopus、MEDLINE和PsychINFO进行系统检索来识别文章。关键词为“儿童、自杀、心理解剖和案例研究”。通过手动检索参考文献列表并与同事讨论来识别其他文章。共识别出15篇已发表文章，8篇心理解剖研究（PA）和7个回顾性案例研究系列。自杀发生率和性别差异随年龄增长而增加。上吊是最常见的方式。与青少年相比，儿童自杀者中精神病理学发生率较低。既往自杀未遂是一个重要的危险因素。儿童自杀前饮酒的可能性较小。亲子冲突是最常见的诱因。
