In 2015, fifteen percent of Puerto Rican adolescents attempted suicide. In general, females have more suicidal thoughts while males are more likely to die by suicide. However, few evidence-based treatments have been developed for this population.
The aim of this study was to illustrate the therapeutic process of a male Puerto Rican adolescent treated with the Socio-Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Suicidal Behavior (SCBT-SB), a culturally informed protocol, and to discuss how developmental, feminist, and family system perspectives were incorporated in the SCBT-SB treatment model.
A case study is presented: Julio received the SCBT-SB after a psychiatric hospitalization subsequent to threating to commit suicide. Baseline and post-treatment assessments evaluated diagnosis, risk factors (e.g. hopelessness), treatment satisfaction, and suicidal behaviors.
Julio demonstrated clinically significant change in depressive symptoms, hopelessness, suicidal ideation, and aggressive/impulsive behaviors.
The SCBT-SB was feasible to implement and proved acceptable to the client and his family.
2015年,15%的波多黎各青少年曾尝试自杀。总体而言,女性有更多自杀念头,而男性自杀死亡的可能性更大。然而,针对这一人群几乎没有基于证据的治疗方法。
本研究的目的是阐述一名接受社会认知行为自杀行为治疗(SCBT-SB)的波多黎各男性青少年的治疗过程,这是一种具有文化针对性的方案,并讨论发展、女性主义和家庭系统视角如何纳入SCBT-SB治疗模式。
呈现一个案例研究:胡里奥在威胁自杀后接受精神科住院治疗,之后接受了SCBT-SB。基线和治疗后评估包括诊断、风险因素(如绝望感)、治疗满意度和自杀行为。
胡里奥在抑郁症状、绝望感、自杀意念以及攻击/冲动行为方面显示出临床上的显著变化。
SCBT-SB实施起来是可行的,并且被服务对象及其家人所接受。
