Incarcerated adolescents represent a risk group for non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI), but research on this population has been limited and no studies have been conducted in Russia. To address this deficit, this study examined NSSI and the factors associated with it among youth in a juvenile correctional facility in Russia. NSSI and psychopathology were assessed using a psychiatric interview and self-report questionnaire in 368 incarcerated male adolescents aged 14-19 years (mean age 16.4 years, S.D. 0.9) from Northern Russia. 18.2% ( = 67) of the study participants had a history of NSSI and also had higher rates of anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, community violence exposure and scored higher on most of the Youth Self-Report problem scales. In addition, 31.3% of the NSSI group reported previous suicidal ideation and had thought about a specific suicide method compared to 12.0% in the No-NSSI group. Adolescents with NSSI also differed significantly from the No-NSSI group on self-directedness (lower) and self-transcendence (higher) personality traits. NSSI is common in incarcerated adolescents in Russia and is associated with extensive psychiatric comorbidity, suicidal ideation and specific personality traits.
被监禁的青少年是非自杀性自伤行为（NSSI）的风险群体，但针对这一人群的研究一直有限，俄罗斯尚未开展相关研究。为填补这一空白，本研究调查了俄罗斯一家青少年教养机构中青少年的非自杀性自伤行为及其相关因素。研究采用精神科访谈和自填问卷的方式，对来自俄罗斯北部的368名年龄在14 - 19岁（平均年龄16.4岁，标准差0.9）的被监禁男性青少年进行了非自杀性自伤行为和精神病理学评估。18.2%（n = 67）的研究参与者有非自杀性自伤行为史，且焦虑、创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）、抑郁、社区暴力暴露发生率更高，在大多数青少年自评问题量表上得分也更高。此外，非自杀性自伤行为组中有31.3%的人报告有过自杀意念，并曾考虑过具体的自杀方法，而无自伤行为组的这一比例为12.0%。有非自杀性自伤行为的青少年在自我导向性（较低）和自我超越性（较高）人格特质方面也与无自伤行为组存在显著差异。非自杀性自伤行为在俄罗斯被监禁青少年中很常见，且与广泛的精神共病、自杀意念和特定人格特质相关。
