Abstract

Globally, suicide and suicidal behaviors among adolescents and other youth continue to be a serious public health concern.^1-3 The influence of war events such as displacement, injuries, continuous bombardments, witnessing atrocities and deaths, the relentless exposure to violent images and messages in the media is associated with acute stress, increased post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and functional impairments.⁴ Similarly, lack of schooling and support systems in war settings and the associated risk of psychopathology put war-affected populations, especially adolescents and young adults, at an increased risk of suicidal ideation and behaviors and self-harm.².

社论：战争期间青少年自杀和自残的风险：全球研究重点。

1-3 战争事件的影响，如流离失所、受伤、持续轰炸、目睹暴行和死亡、无休止地接触媒体中的暴力图像和信息，与急性应激反应、创伤后应激障碍（PTSD）加重和功能障碍有关。同样，在战争环境中缺乏学校教育和支持系统以及与之相关的精神病理学风险使受战争影响的人群，尤其是青少年和年轻成年人，产生自杀念头和行为以及自我伤害的风险增加。

期刊介绍： The Journal of the American Academy of Child & Adolescent Psychiatry (JAACAP) is dedicated to advancing the field of child and adolescent psychiatry through the publication of original research and papers of theoretical, scientific, and clinical significance. Our primary focus is on the mental health of children, adolescents, and families. We welcome unpublished manuscripts that explore various perspectives, ranging from genetic, epidemiological, neurobiological, and psychopathological research, to cognitive, behavioral, psychodynamic, and other psychotherapeutic investigations. We also encourage submissions that delve into parent-child, interpersonal, and family research, as well as clinical and empirical studies conducted in inpatient, outpatient, consultation-liaison, and school-based settings. In addition to publishing research, we aim to promote the well-being of children and families by featuring scholarly papers on topics such as health policy, legislation, advocacy, culture, society, and service provision in relation to mental health. At JAACAP, we strive to foster collaboration and dialogue among researchers, clinicians, and policy-makers in order to enhance our understanding and approach to child and adolescent mental health.
