The functions of nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) and DSM-IV-TR diagnoses were examined in a sample of thirty ethnic adolescents followed up in a local child and adolescent psychiatric clinic in Singapore. The most commonly endorsed function of NSSI on the Functional Assessment of Self-Mutilation scale was Automatic Negative Reinforcement (A-NR) and the least being Social Negative Reinforcement (S-NR). Participants were more likely to be diagnosed as having Major Depression Disorder. Depressed adolescents did not differ from non-depressed counterparts in their endorsement of social reinforcement functions. The results suggest that specific psychosocial interventions may help address both automatic and social functions of NSSI in Singapore adolescents.
对在新加坡当地儿童和青少年精神病诊所接受随访的 30 名少数族裔青少年进行了一项研究，以检验非自杀性自我伤害（NSSI）和 DSM-IV-TR 诊断的功能。在《自我伤害功能评估量表》上，NSSI 最常被认可的功能是自动负强化（A-NR），而最不被认可的功能是社会负强化（S-NR）。参与者更有可能被诊断为患有重度抑郁症。在社会强化功能的认可方面，抑郁青少年与非抑郁青少年没有区别。结果表明，在新加坡青少年中，特定的心理社会干预措施可能有助于解决 NSSI 的自动和社会功能。
