Research Abstract

Very little is known about suicidal ideation and behaviors among Japanese adolescents. Present study examined psychosocial and psychiatric factors related to these problems seen in psychiatric outpatients.
During the three-year-study period, 106 parent child pairs took part in this project, namely structured clinical interview and questionnaires. 82 pairs were included in the analyses. The average age of children was 13.70 years old, 32 were males and 50 were females. Those who reported suicidal ideation amounted to 33.3 %, suicidal behaviors 15.1% respectively. Those who reported both suicidal ideation and behaviors scored high scores of anxiety, depression and dissociation which exceeded far more than clinical cut off point. Especially dissociation scores characterized differences among adolescents with and without suicidal behaviors. Most commonly found psychiatric diagnoses among adolescents with suicidal ideation and behaviors were major depressive disorders, generalized anxiety disorders, psychoses, social phobia, schizophrenia. Substance abuse and conduct disorders were not prevalent as in other previous studies.
Parents who did not grasp children' suicidal behaviors used neurotic defense more frequently compared with parents who grasped children's suicidal behaviors, however small number of subjects in the study limited interpretation of the result. Further study will be needed to confirm this point
