OBJECTIVE
Suicidal behaviors among young Black sexual gender minority males ages 14-24 is a pressing issue that requires urgent attention. This study aims to fill a significant gap in the literature by investigating how internal assets impact suicidal behaviors among young Black sexual minority men (SMM) ages 14-24.
METHODS
This study utilized a cross-sectional survey of young Black SMM (N = 538) from December 1, 2023, to January 31, 2024, to examine the influence of internal assets (such as positive values, positive identity) on suicidal behaviors. A logistic regression was performed to examine the associations between internal assets and suicidal behaviors.
RESULTS
Our findings indicated that positive identity was associated with lower levels of suicidal behaviors (β = - 0.29; p < 0.001). Positive values (β = - 0.24; p < 0.001) and social competencies (β = - 0.29; p < 0.001) were also associated with fewer suicidal behaviors.
CONCLUSIONS
Our results indicate that internal assets play a significant role in influencing suicidal behaviors among young Black sexual gender minority males. By promoting positive values, positive identity, and social competencies, we can help build resilience and reduce the risk of suicide among Black SMM.
目的
14至24岁的年轻黑人性少数男性中的自杀行为是一个紧迫问题，需要紧急关注。本研究旨在通过调查内部资产如何影响14至24岁的年轻黑人性少数男性（SMM）的自杀行为，填补文献中的一个重大空白。
方法
本研究于2023年12月1日至2024年1月31日对年轻黑人SMM（N = 538）进行了横断面调查，以检验内部资产（如积极价值观、积极身份认同）对自杀行为的影响。进行了逻辑回归分析，以检验内部资产与自杀行为之间的关联。
结果
我们的研究结果表明，积极身份认同与较低水平的自杀行为相关（β = -0.29；p < 0.001）。积极价值观（β = -0.24；p < 0.001）和社交能力（β = -0.29；p < 0.001）也与较少的自杀行为相关。
结论
我们的结果表明，内部资产在影响年轻黑人性少数男性的自杀行为方面发挥着重要作用。通过促进积极价值观、积极身份认同和社交能力，我们可以帮助增强恢复力，降低黑人SMM的自杀风险。
