Abstract:
Objective:To investigate psychological sub-health status and its correlation with suicidal behaviors among middle school students in Shenzhen, so as to provide reference for early prevention of suicide.
Methods:A total of 4 014 students from 5 junior high schools and 5 senior high schools in Shenzhen were selected as the subjects. The status of psychological sub-health and suicidal behaviors were assessed, and their correlation was analyzed.
Results:The detection rates of psychological sub-health, suicide ideation, suicide plan and suicide attempts were 21.38%, 24.66%, 11.81% and 3.64% respectively. The detection rates of suicidal ideation, suicide plan and suicide attempts among students with high level of psychological sub-health status were significantly higher than those without psychological sub-health status(P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed that the number of psychological sub-health symptoms was positively correlated with the number of suicidal ideations, suicide plans and suicide attempts(P<0.01).
Conclusion:Psychological health status of adolescents in Shenzhen is not optimistic. There is a correlation between psychological sub-health status and suicidal behaviors. More attention should be paid to suicide prevention among students with psychological sub-health status.
