Factors associated with the ideation of suicide in adolescents. Some evidence in Argentina

Suicide has become a pressing social and public health problem worldwide. Particularly in Argentina in the last 25 years, suicide mortality tripled in the young population and this type of death has become the second cause of death in the range of 10 to 19 years old.

description Suicide has become a pressing social and public health problem worldwide. Particularly in Argentina in the last 25 years, suicide mortality tripled in the young population and this type of death has become the second cause of death in the range of 10 to 19 years old. Based on the Global school-based student health survey (GSHS), a WHO project implemented in Argentina in 2012, this article analyzes the relationship between the suicide attempt and different factors in students between 13 and 15-year-old. It applies logistic regression models to show that some factors increase and others decrease the risk of suicide attempt. In addition, when the term of conditional relationship is analyzed, it is observed that the impact of each of them is different between gender, being girls, in general, the most vulnerable. Likewise, the combined effect of different factors may increase the risk of a suicide attempt.

Particularly in Argentina in the last 25 years, suicide mortality tripled in the young population and this type of death has become the second cause of death in the range of 10 to 19 years old. Based on the Global school-based student health survey (GSHS), a WHO project implemented in Argentina in 2012, this article analyzes the relationship between the suicide attempt and different factors in students between 13 and 15-year-old. It applies logistic regression models to show that some factors increase and others decrease the risk of suicide attempt.

Likewise, the combined effect of different factors may increase the risk of a suicide attempt. El suicidio se ha convertido en una acuciante problemática social y de salud pública a nivel mundial. Particularmente en Argentina, en los últimos 25 años la mortalidad por suicidio se triplicó en la población joven y este tipo de defunciones se ha constituido en la segunda causa de muerte en la franja de 10 a 19 años. A partir de los datos que brinda la Encuesta Mundial de Salud Escolar, proyecto de la OMS, implementada en Argentina en 2012, se realiza un abordaje respecto a la ideación y planificación de suicidio, así como a factores asociados al fenómeno en estudiantes entre 13 y 15 años. A partir de modelos de regresión logística, se analiza el efecto de factores de riesgo y factores protectores. Se observa que la exposición a factores de riesgo o a factores protectores efectivamente aumenta, en el caso de los primeros, o disminuye —en el caso de los segundos— el riesgo de experimentar un intento de suicidio. Además, cuando se analiza el término de relación condicional, se observa que el impacto de cada uno de ellos es diferente entre los varones y mujeres, siendo estas últimas, en general, las más vulnerables. Asimismo, que el efecto combinado de distintos factores puede potenciar el riesgo de experimentar un intento de suicidio.
