PURPOSE
The goal of the present study was to examine suicide acceptability as a mechanism of suicide clustering in adolescents.
METHODS
Data were drawn from The National Annenberg Survey of Youth, a sample of 3302 adolescents aged 14-22 collected between 2002 and 2004.
RESULTS
Results indicated that beliefs of the acceptability of suicide partially mediated the effect of exposure to suicide (defined as knowing someone who attempted or completed suicide) on 1) serious suicidal ideation and 2) suicide planning behaviors.
CONCLUSIONS
The present study demonstrated that suicide acceptability is in small part a possible reason why suicides tend to cluster in adolescents. It contributes not only to the knowledge of how the phenomenon of suicide clustering might occur, but more broadly highlights the importance of examining mediators of suicide clustering.
目的
本研究的目的是检验自杀可接受性作为青少年自杀聚集的一种机制。
方法
数据取自全国安嫩伯格青年调查，该样本为2002年至2004年间收集的3302名14至22岁的青少年。
结果
结果表明，自杀可接受性的信念部分介导了接触自杀（定义为认识某个试图自杀或自杀成功的人）对以下两方面的影响：1）严重自杀意念；2）自杀计划行为。
结论
本研究表明，自杀可接受性在一定程度上是青少年自杀倾向于聚集的一个可能原因。它不仅有助于了解自杀聚集现象可能如何发生，更广泛地凸显了研究自杀聚集中介因素的重要性。
