“…Unlike the minimum wage, the EITC primarily targets families with dependent children. While our data does not include information about the presence of children, studies suggest that the presence of minor children reduces the risk of suicide (Driver and Abed 2004;Denney 2010). Such a pattern would be consistent with smaller and noisier effects of the EITC relative to the effects of the minimum wage.…”

“…When considering protective factors, this study highlighted that the perceived sense of other's loss can prevent suicide attempts, especially when children are involved (46,47). Using personal strengths during difficult times has been found to improve self-worth within depressed and non-depressed TBI populations, leading to the reduction of suicidal ideations and attempts (48).…”

Living with suicidality following traumatic brain injury: a qualitative study

2020

Numbers of traumatic brain injury (TBI) are increasing, and with suicidality post-injury presenting at 3-4 times higher than in the general population, understanding this is crucial in reducing a devastating outcome. Given the lack of literature, this study investigated the experiences of living with suicidality after TBI.Methods: Interview data from nineteen TBI participants with TBI from a Brain Injury Rehabilitation Unit (BIRU) in New South Wales (NSW), Australia wereas collected and thematically analysed. Findings: The participants (predominantly male) had sustained extremely severe injuries (median PTA 60 [IQR 81.0] days) and were in the chronic phase post-injury (median 8.0 [IQR 9.0] years). Six main themes were identified; Loss of sense of self, TBI as a hidden disability, Chronic but transient suicidality, Reliance, Protective factors, and Hope. Tentative relationships between themes and subthemes were identified. Conclusion:Chronic suicidality after TBI was demonstrated consistently regardless of receiving long-term support. However, their engagement with protective factors such as social support, spirituality and positive personal qualities was also identified.Implementing these as coping strategies during long-term rehabilitation may reduce the levels of suicidal distress. Implications, methodological considerations and future research were discussed, with the aim of improving experiences of individuals with TBI to reduce suicidality.

“…Psychotropic medication was included in the hypothesized model because previous research has shown that receiving medication is associated with suffering comorbid depressive disorders and more frequent use of mental health services (Harpaz-Rotem, Rosenheck, Mohamed, & Desai, 2009;Mohamed & Rosenheck, 2008). Finally, it has been found that a number of demographic factors (e.g., being female, younger, unmarried or divorced/widowed, having dependent children) are predictive of increased suicidal thoughts and behaviors in the general population (e.g., Bernal et al, 2006;Driver & Abed, 2004;Kessler, Borges, & Walters, 1999).…”

This study investigated paths to suicidal behavior in 94 civilian participants with chronic posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Two statistical modeling programs, TETRAD II version 2.1 and Mplus 5.21 were used to construct a working model of suicide in PTSD. Two paths to suicidal behavior were identified. In the first path, suicidal behavior was directly associated with greater life impairment, which in turn was associated with poorer occupational and social functioning. In the second path, suicidal behavior was directly associated with depressive symptoms, which in turn were associated with more severe PTSD symptoms. Psychotropic medication, employment status, and threat to life further contributed to the model. The findings suggest that negative perceptions of functional impairment and depression are strongly associated with suicidal behavior in PTSD.
