Adolescent suicidal ideation (SI) and nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) are associated with depression, but few studies adequately represent sexual minorities.
This study investigated whether the association between SI/NSSI and depression varies by sexual orientation. SI, NSSI, sexual orientation, and depressive symptoms were measured in a community sample of adolescent girls (n =1,803).
Sexual identity and depression accounted for unique risk for SI and NSSI in logistic regressions. Sexual orientation moderated the association between depression and NSSI.
Results indicate that depression is a less specific predictor of NSSI among sexual minority adolescents compared to their heterosexual peers and indicate a need for future research to delineate what psychosocial factors better account for NSSI risk.
青少年自杀意念(SI)和非自杀性自伤行为(NSSI)与抑郁症有关,但很少有研究能充分涵盖性少数群体。
本研究调查了SI/NSSI与抑郁症之间的关联是否因性取向而异。在一个青少年女孩社区样本(n = 1803)中测量了SI、NSSI、性取向和抑郁症状。
在逻辑回归中,性身份和抑郁症是SI和NSSI的独特风险因素。性取向调节了抑郁症与NSSI之间的关联。
结果表明,与异性恋青少年相比,抑郁症作为性少数群体青少年NSSI的预测因素特异性较低,这表明未来研究需要明确哪些心理社会因素能更好地解释NSSI风险。
