Abstract:
We determined risk factors that discriminate between suicide attempt ( SA ) adolescents and suicidal ideation only ( SI only) adolescents using data from the 2010 K orea Y outh R isk B ehavior W eb‐based S urvey (12–19 years; N = 73,238). In males, heavy alcohol use, drug use, and high perceived sadness/hopelessness showed significant effects on the presence of SA versus the presence of SI only. In females, along with these variables, low academic achievement, poor perceived health status, high perceived stress, and unhealthy coping strategy were also significantly related to the presence of SA versus SI only. Therefore, clinical interventions targeting adolescents' psychological distress are warranted to prevent suicide.
