Suicide and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) are prevalent in emerging adulthood and one possible commonality is emotion regulation deficits. Participants ( = 708) completed multiple self-report measures that assessed emotion regulation deficits, depression, past-year NSSI frequency, past-year suicide attempts, and recent suicide ideation severity. Controlling for depression, linear regression analyses found that the only significant association was between greater deficits in emotion regulation strategies and greater recent NSSI frequency and suicide ideation intensity. These results suggest some commonality in emotion regulation deficits across NSSI and suicide ideation. Prevention and intervention efforts should teach emotion regulation strategies to lower self-harm risk.
自杀和非自杀性自伤(NSSI)在成年早期很普遍,一个可能的共同点是情绪调节缺陷。参与者( = 708)完成了多项自我报告的测量,评估了情绪调节缺陷、抑郁、过去一年 NSSI 的频率、过去一年的自杀企图以及最近自杀意念的严重程度。控制抑郁后,线性回归分析发现,情绪调节策略的缺陷与近期 NSSI 频率和自杀意念强度的增加之间存在唯一显著的关联。这些结果表明,NSSI 和自杀意念在情绪调节缺陷方面存在一定的共性。预防和干预措施应教授情绪调节策略,以降低自我伤害的风险。
