Peer victimization and suicidal thoughts and behaviors in depressed adolescents
Open accessAbstract
Suicide is a leading cause of death among youth worldwide, and depressed adolescents are at a significantly elevated risk to report suicidal ideation, planning, and attempts. Peer victimization is a robust predictor of adolescent suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs), but little research has focused on why bullying leads to suicidal thoughts and behaviors. To address this empirical gap, we recruited 340 (246 female) depressed adolescents ages 13-19 (M = 15.59, SD = 1.41) within 48 h of admission for acute psychiatric treatment. At the initial assessment, participants were administered clinical interviews characterizing psychopathology, nonsuicidal self-injury, and STBs (ideation, plans, and attempts). Further, they completed questionnaires assessing 3 forms of victimization (overt, relational, and reputational), recent risky behavior engagement, and psychiatric symptom severity. Controlling for internalizing symptoms and age, overt and reputational bullying were associated with more frequent past month suicide attempts, but not suicide ideation. Past month risky behavior engagement, but not NSSI, mediated the relation between victimization and attempts. However, sex differences revealed that this effect only held for males whereas bullying was directly associated with suicide attempts among females. In contrast, overt and relational bullying were non-linearly associated with suicide plans, and these relations were not mediated by risky behaviors or NSSI. Results highlight the complex network of factors that lead victimized adolescents to engage in STBs and may inform targeted suicide prevention and intervention programs.

When environmental exposures, especially acute stress, combine with neural diatheses, the likelihood of suicidal and non-suicidal behaviors may increase.
“Coupled with specific environmental exposures—particularly acute stress (e.g., peer victimization, interpersonal loss)—the likelihood of suicidal (21–23) and non-suicidal (24–26) behaviors may increase.”
From Neural correlates associated with suicide and nonsuicidal self-injury in youth (2021) · cites this paper as [22]
Adolescent interpersonal stress may initially compromise cortical regions involved in cognitive flexibility and future-oriented thinking, which over time may potentiate suicidal and non-suicidal thinking.
“Additionally, adolescent interpersonal stress (e.g., loss (21, 25), peer victimization (22, 24))—may initially act on cortical regions by compromising cognitive flexibility and future oriented thinking (124), which over time, may potentiate suicidal and non-suicidal thinking (125, 126).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
