Correlates of Suicidal Ideation and Attempts in a Community Sample of Junior High and High School Students
Abstract
We administered a questionnaire anonymously to 1,384 junior high and high school students. Results indicated that 36% of these adolescents had experienced suicidal thoughts in the past year; 7% reported having made a suicide attempt. Nearly half (n = 48) of the students experiencing "extremely troubling" suicidal ideation reported having made an attempt. Females, ninth graders, and students of low socioeconomic status (SES) were most at risk for experiencing suicidal thoughts, whereas females and low-SES students were most at risk for suicide attempts. Suicidal ideation and attempts were associated with more negative life events, lower levels of family support, and lower levels of adjustment. Finally, analyses revealed that, whereas demographic variables were only weak predictors of suicidal ideation and attempts, subsets of other variables such as life events, social support, and adjustment strongly enhanced the ability to predict suicidal behavior.

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.
