This study examined (a) the relationship that interpersonal problems and depression share with the intensity of mobile phone use and (b) their effects on suicide-related behaviors (SRBs) and self-harming behaviors among adolescents.
In this cross-sectional study, adolescents were recruited from 11 middle and high schools in Shenzhen, China. They completed self-reported measures that assessed mobile phone use, their history of SRBs (i.e., suicidal ideation, suicidal planning, and attempted suicide) and self-harming behaviors, depression, and interpersonal problems.
Interpersonal problems and depression mediated the relationship between high-intensity mobile phone use and the risk for SRBs and self-harming behaviors among Chinese adolescents.
The findings delineate the pathways through which interpersonal problems and depression increase the risk for SRBs and self-harming behaviors among adolescents who report high-intensity mobile phone use. Future studies should develop interventions that alleviate interpersonal problems and depressive symptoms to reduce the risk for SRBs and self-harming behaviors among adolescents who report high-intensity mobile phone use.
本研究考察了（a）人际关系问题和抑郁与手机使用强度之间的关系，以及（b）它们对青少年自杀相关行为（SRBs）和自残行为的影响。
在这项横断面研究中，研究人员从中国深圳的 11 所中学和高中招募了青少年。他们完成了自我报告的测量，评估了手机使用、自杀相关行为（即自杀意念、自杀计划和自杀未遂）和自残行为、抑郁和人际关系问题的历史。
人际关系问题和抑郁在高强度手机使用与中国青少年自杀相关行为和自残行为风险之间起中介作用。
研究结果描绘了人际关系问题和抑郁增加报告高强度手机使用的青少年自杀相关行为和自残行为风险的途径。未来的研究应制定干预措施，减轻人际关系问题和抑郁症状，以降低报告高强度手机使用的青少年自杀相关行为和自残行为的风险。
