The study aimed to estimate the high suicide risk during the COVID-19 lockdown in the Colombian population. A total of 700 adults aged between 18 and 76 years ( = 37.1, = 12.7; 68.0% women) completed an online questionnaire. Findings showed that 7.6% of participants reported a high suicide risk. High suicide risk was associated with high perceived stress related to COVID-19, risk of depressive episode, and insomnia. Our study suggests that 1 out of 13 Colombians in a non-probability sample reports a high suicide risk during COVID-19. Findings need to be corroborated in a representative sample of Colombians.
该研究旨在评估哥伦比亚人群在新冠疫情封锁期间的高自杀风险。共有700名年龄在18至76岁之间的成年人（平均年龄=37.1岁，标准差=12.7岁；68.0%为女性）完成了一份在线问卷。研究结果显示，7.6%的参与者报告有高自杀风险。高自杀风险与对新冠疫情的高感知压力、抑郁发作风险和失眠有关。我们的研究表明，在一个非概率样本中，每13名哥伦比亚人中就有1人在新冠疫情期间报告有高自杀风险。研究结果需要在哥伦比亚的代表性样本中得到证实。
