Substance use disorders and posttraumatic stress disorder have been associated with suicide. Through secondary analysis of the screening data from the Women and Trauma Study conducted by the National Institute on Drug Abuse Clinical Trials Network, the present study examined rates and correlates of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts among women who sought treatment for substance use and trauma at seven outpatient substance use programs. The sample included women between the ages of 18 and 65 years (M = 39.2; SD = 9.3) and was 44 percent white, 33 percent African American, 8 percent Latina, and 15 percent other races or ethnicities. Logistic regression was used to examine factors associated with a lifetime history of recurrent suicidal ideation and a serious suicide attempt. Findings highlight the need for social workers to address elevated risk levels for suicidal thoughts and behaviors when working with women with histories of substance use and trauma.
物质使用障碍和创伤后应激障碍与自杀有关。通过对美国国立药物滥用研究所临床试验网络开展的女性与创伤研究的筛查数据进行二次分析，本研究调查了在七个门诊物质使用项目中接受物质使用和创伤治疗的女性的自杀意念及自杀未遂率及其相关因素。样本包括年龄在18至65岁之间的女性（M = 39.2；SD = 9.3），其中44%为白人，33%为非裔美国人，8%为拉丁裔，15%为其他种族或族裔。采用逻辑回归分析来研究与复发性自杀意念终身史和严重自杀未遂相关的因素。研究结果突出表明，社会工作者在为有物质使用和创伤史的女性提供服务时，有必要应对其自杀想法和行为的高风险水平。
