“…However, it also appears that the relationship between life adversity and suicidal behavior may differ by type of suicidal behavior. For example, young people who had attempted suicide were significantly more likely than those with suicidal ideation to have experienced stressful life events [21,27,31,36]. In turn, the correlation between suicide attempts and adverse life events seems to differ by type of life event.…”

“…Stone et al [24] found that female inpatients with higher rates of dependent events at baseline were at higher risk (42 vs. 21 %) of suicidal behavior during the 34 weeks following their discharge from hospital. Horesh et al [31] in a case-control study comparing the effect of stressful life events on suicidal behavior in three groups of adolescents (suicide attempters with Major Depressive Disorder, suicide attempters with Borderline Personality Disorder, and healthy controls) reported that suicidal patients experienced a significantly higher number of stressful life events in the year before their suicide attempt compared with healthy controls.…”

Suicidal behavior in young people is a significant public health problem. However, it is not yet clear whether adversities (adverse life events) may be related to suicidality in adolescence and early adulthood. This paper aimed to investigate systematically the association between the type/number of adverse life events and experiences and suicidal behavior in young people. We developed a detailed strategy to search relevant articles in Pubmed, Scopus, PsycInfo, and Science Direct (January 1980-January 2015) about adverse life events and suicidal behavior. Adverse life events and experiences included maltreatment and violence, loss events, intra-familial problems, school and interpersonal problems. Studies were restricted to suicidal behavior in young people aged 10-25 years. The search yielded 245 articles, of which 28 met our inclusion criteria. Most studies reported a strong association between adversities and suicidality (both suicidal ideation and attempts). Based on the main results, the number of adversities or negative life events experienced seemed to have a positive dose-response relationship with youth suicidal behavior. However, the type of event experienced also appeared to matter: one of the most consistent findings was the association between suicidal behavior and experience of sexual abuse. More prospective studies are needed to elucidate the relative importance of risk accumulation and risk specificity for youth suicide.

“…In a follow-up of over 25 years, they found that adolescents with suicidal ideation were, at the age of 30, more than twice as likely to suff er from an Axis I disorder, about 12 times more likely to attempt suicide, and presented low self-esteem, signifi cant interpersonal problems and impaired overall functioning. Simultaneously, these individuals seemed to experience more negative events throughout life (Horesh, Nachshoni, Wolmer, & Toren, 2009;Liu & Tein, 2005;Thompson et al, 2012).…”

-The present study aims to identify psychological predictors of suicidal ideation in university students. We collected a sample of 366 participants, representing a population of 7102 students from a university in northern Portugal (95% CI). Both in the whole sample and in the intra-gender analysis, students with suicidal ideation revealed higher levels of depressive symptoms, loneliness, social anxiety and fears of abandonment, and lower levels of comfort with intimacy and trust in others. Loneliness and depression are signifi cant predictors of suicidal ideation, with an odds ratio of 1.095 and 1.108, respectively. The results were consistent with those found in the literature, and call for more research and implementation of intervention protocols in university populations.Keywords: psychological predictors, suicidal ideation, university students Investigando Preditores Psicológicos de Ideação Suicida em Estudantes UniversitáriosRESUMO -Este trabalho buscou investigar preditores psicológicos de ideação suicida em estudantes universitários.

“…Experiencing death in the family (Portzky, De Wilde, & Van Heeringen, 2008), health problems of a family member, or relational problems with family members are identified as potential risk factors for NSSI in adolescents (Muehlenkamp, Hoff, Licht, Azure, & Hasenzahl, 2008). Furthermore, recent studies (Baetens, Claes, Muehlenkamp, Grietens, & Onghena, 2011;Horesh, Nachshoni, Wolmer, & Toren, 2009) suggest that the quantity of negative life-events, rather than the specific type of life-event, is significantly related to NSSI.…”

The present study investigates the association of parenting and family factors with nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) in pre-adolescents. A sample of 1439 pre-adolescents and their parents were assessed by means of (a) adolescent-reported parenting behaviors (support and behavioral/psychological control), (b) parent-reported parenting behaviors (support and behavioral/psychological control) and parenting stress, and (c) parent-reported family structure, socioeconomic status (SES) of the family, family functioning, and family stressful life-events. The prevalence of NSSI was 4.82%. Pre-adolescents engaging in NSSI perceived more psychological and behavioral control from their parents. Logistic regression using parent-reported parenting behaviors as covariates showed a significant interaction between parent-reported support and behavioral control in relation to NSSI behaviors. No significant differences in parent-reported parenting stress and family structure emerged. Significant differences in parent-reported SES of families with and without self-injurious pre-adolescents were found. Finally, no significant associations appeared between the presence of NSSI and parent-reported family functioning and stressful life-events.
