Abstract
Background: The Interpersonal-Psychological Theory of Suicide (IPTS), identifies perceived burdensomeness as a critical factor in the development of suicidal ideation. Measurement of perceived burdensomeness using the INQ in research has predominantly focused on liability toward others. Recent studies have demonstrated the role of perceived contribution toward others as an aspect of perceived burdensomeness. This study proposes a hypothesized transactional model of perceived burdensomeness, in which perceived burdensomeness can be viewed as the balance between perceived contributions and perceived liability to others.
Method: Participants (n = 1112) were college students (M age = 18.86 years, SD = 1.50) who completed survey measures. Participants were predominantly cisgender women (73.6%), heterosexual (78.8%), and white (58.3%).
Results: Perceived contribution was negatively associated with perceived burdensomeness, suicidal ideation, and psychological pain after controlling for perceived liability. Further, the difference between perceived contributions and perceived liability accounted for variability in suicidal ideation after controlling for INQ perceived burdensomeness.
Discussion: The inclusion of perceived contribution as an element of perceived burdensomeness may offer new opportunities for clinical formulation and intervention. Future research is needed to further evaluate the proposed transactional model of perceived burdensomeness.
期刊介绍:
An excellent resource for researchers as well as students, Social Cognition features reports on empirical research, self-perception, self-concept, social neuroscience, person-memory integration, social schemata, the development of social cognition, and the role of affect in memory and perception. Three broad concerns define the scope of the journal: - The processes underlying the perception, memory, and judgment of social stimuli - The effects of social, cultural, and affective factors on the processing of information - The behavioral and interpersonal consequences of cognitive processes.
