Abstract(s)
Através da literatura, é possível verificar que os comportamentos suicidários são uma questão de saúde pública e que se verificam como o segundo motivo de morte nos jovens com as idades compreendidas entre os 15 e os 29 anos ([WHO], 2014). A presente investigação tem como objetivo clarificar a relação que existe entre as variáveis relacionais e individuais com os comportamentos autolesivos e as tentativas de suicídio nos jovens adultos. Este estudo é composto por uma amostra de 190 participantes, com idades entre os 18 e os 25 anos.
Como instrumentos, foram utilizados: a Escala de Coesão e Flexibilidade Familiar FACES IV (Olson, 2011); o Inventário de Clima Familiar (Teodoro et al., 2009); o Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measure (Evans et al., 2000); a Escala de Solidão da UCLA (Félix, 1989); o Instrumento de Avaliação do Sentimento de Pertença (Monteiro & Maia, 2009); o Inventário dos Comportamentos Autolesivos (Duarte et al., 2019); e o Questionário de Ideação Suicida (Reynolds, 1998).
Os resultados demonstraram que 51.6% (N=98) dos participantes referem já ter realizado comportamentos autolesivos, enquanto 48.4% (N=92) não tem comportamentos autolesivos. No que concerne às tentativas de suicídio, 88.4% responderam nunca ter feito nenhuma TS, 7.9% responderam já ter feito 1 TS, 2.1% afirmaram já ter feito 2 a 10 TS e 1.6% referem que fizeram mais de 10 TS. Verificou-se, ainda, uma associação significativa negativa entre o bem-estar mental, funcionamento familiar, sentimento de pertença e solidão com os comportamentos autolesivos e as tentativas de suicídio, bem como uma associação significativa positiva entre a ideação suicida e os comportamentos autolesivos e as tentativas de suicídio.
Through the literature it is possible to verify that suicidal behaviors are a public heath problem and they are verified as the second cause of death in young aduls with aged between 15 and 29 years ([WHO], 2014). The presente investigation aims to clarify the relationship that exists between relational and individual variables with self-injurious behaviors and suicide attempts in young adults. This study is composed of a sample of 190 participants, aged between 18 and 25 years. The instruments that were used are the FACES IV Family Cohesion and Flexibility Scale (Olson, 2011), Family Climate Inventoy (Teodoro et al., 2009), Clinical Outcome Routine Evaluation – Outcome Measure (Evans et al., 2000), UCLA Loneliness Scale (Félix,1989), Instrument of Assessment of Feeling of Belonging (Monteiro & Maia, 2009), Self-harm Behavior Inventory (Duarte et al., 2019) and Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire (Reynolds, 1998). The results showed that 51.6% (N = 98) refer to having already performed self-injurious behaviors, while 48.4% (N= 92) do not have self-injurious behaviors, with regard to suicide attempts, 88.4% said they had never done any SA, 7.9% said they had already done 1 SA, 2.1% said they had already done 2 to 10 SA and 1.6% said they had done more than 10 SA. There was also a significant negative association between mental well-being, family functioning, feeling of belonging and loneliness with self-injurious behaviors and suicide attempts, as well as a significant positive association between suicidal ideation; self-injurious behaviors and suicide attempts.
