Abstract

Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) by proxy is the intentional destruction of one's own body tissue through the elicitation of another being's actions. Despite its clinical relevance, research on NSSI by proxy is limited and there are no available measures of this behavior. This research aimed to characterize NSSI by proxy among young adults and provide preliminary data on the validity of a new self-report measure, the NSSI by Proxy Questionnaire (NSSIBPQ). Two nationwide community samples of young adults (one general community sample and one with a history of traditional NSSI and suicidality) completed online studies. NSSI by proxy was reported by 18% of the general community sample and 45% of the self-injuring sample. Findings support the clinical relevance of NSSI by proxy and its potential to meet criteria for an NSSI disorder diagnosis. Results also provide preliminary support for the internal consistency and convergent, discriminant, and concurrent validity of the NSSIBPQ.

非自杀性自我伤害的存在、频率和相关特征:非自杀性自我伤害代理问卷(NSSIBPQ)的初步验证。

代理的非自杀性自我伤害(NSSI)是通过引发他人的行为而故意破坏自己的身体组织。尽管它具有临床意义，但对代理自伤的研究是有限的，并且没有可用的测量方法。本研究旨在通过代理自伤来描述年轻人的自伤行为特征，并为一种新的自我报告测量方法——代理自伤问卷(NSSIBPQ)的有效性提供初步数据。两个全国范围内的年轻人社区样本(一个是普通社区样本，一个是有传统自伤和自杀史的社区样本)完成了在线研究。18%的普通社区样本和45%的自伤样本报告了代理自伤。研究结果支持代理自伤的临床相关性，以及它可能满足自伤障碍诊断标准。研究结果也为NSSIBPQ的内部一致性和收敛效度、判别效度和并发效度提供了初步的支持。

期刊介绍： For two decades, researchers and practitioners have turned to Behavior Modification for current scholarship on applied behavior modification. Starting in 1995, in addition to keeping you informed on assessment and modification techniques relevant to psychiatric, clinical, education, and rehabilitation settings, Behavior Modification revised and expanded its focus to include treatment manuals and program descriptions. With these features you can follow the process of clinical research and see how it can be applied to your own work. And, with Behavior Modification, successful clinical and administrative experts have an outlet for sharing their solutions in the field.
