Abstract

A group of children under 16 years of age who were admitted to hospital after episodes of deliberate self-poisoning, were followed up after one year. Ninety of the original sample of 100 were traced, and interviewed. Almost half of the subjects were improved after one year but the remaining children continued disturbed. Improvement was most marked in relation to "school problems" and "running away from home". There was significant improvement for some children in their family relationships. Ten per cent of children had been involved in further self-poisoning during the follow-up period. Extended follow-up some seven years later traced 41 of the original subjects. The repetition rate for self-poisoning was 20% although the majority of these episode occurred within a year of the original self-poisoning. Overall, the situation of subjects was judged as improved by them and their families although significant psycho-social difficulties remained for some.

童年自杀行为的后果。
一组16岁以下的儿童在故意自我中毒发作后入院,一年后进行了随访。在100个原始样本中,有90个被追踪和采访。一年后,几乎一半的受试者得到了改善,但剩下的孩子仍然受到困扰。改善最明显的是“学校问题”和“离家出走”。一些孩子的家庭关系有了显著改善。在随访期间,有10%的儿童再次自我中毒。大约7年后,延长的随访追踪了41名原始受试者。自毒的重复率为20%,尽管这些事件大多发生在最初自毒的一年内。总体而言,被试及其家人认为他们的情况有所改善,尽管一些人仍然存在明显的心理社会困难。
