Brief report risk factors for suicide attempts among low-income women with a history of alcohol problems
Abstract
This study used bivariate and multivariate analyses to examine nine risk factors for suicide attempts among 80 women (51 attempters, 29 controls) with a history of alcohol problems who were recruited from a large, inner-city hospital. Prior studies established that each of the examined factors increased the risk for suicidal behavioral, but these studies have varied according to whether or not they consisted exclusively of persons with alcohol problems. Whereas eight of the nine factors were bivariately associated with suicide attempt status in this study, only three factors (hopelessness, recent interpersonal loss, childhood trauma) remained significant in the multivariate analysis. These findings illuminate the importance of using multivariate analyses when aiming to identify factors that uniquely increase the risk for suicidal behavior among persons with alcohol problems.

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.
