Abstract

This study examines Suicidal Ideation in individuals living with chronic pain, focusing on the contribution of variables from the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide and the potential mediating role of Meaning in Life. The sample consisted of 251 adults residing in Spain who completed the Purpose in Life Test, the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, and the Suicidal Ideation Scale. The results revealed a significant positive association between Perceived Burdensomeness and Suicidal Ideation, as well as a significant negative association between Perceived Burdensomeness and Meaning in Life. Thwarted Belongingness showed no significant relationship with either Suicidal Ideation or Meaning in Life. Mediation analyses indicated that Meaning in Life partially mediated the relationship between Perceived Burdensomeness and Suicidal Ideation, but not between Thwarted Belongingness and Suicidal Ideation. These findings highlight the relevance of Perceived Burdensomeness as a risk factor and suggest the protective value of Meaning in Life in individuals with chronic pain.

生活意义在西班牙慢性疼痛患者感知负担、受挫归属感和自杀意念之间的中介作用。

本研究探讨慢性疼痛患者的自杀意念，重点关注人际自杀理论变量的贡献以及生活意义的潜在中介作用。样本由251名居住在西班牙的成年人组成，他们完成了生活目的测试、人际需求问卷和自杀意念量表。结果显示，感知负担与自杀意念之间存在显著正相关，感知负担与生活意义之间存在显著负相关。被挫败的归属感与自杀意念和生活意义没有显著的关系。中介分析表明，生活意义在负担感与自杀意念之间起到部分中介作用，而在归属感受挫与自杀意念之间没有中介作用。这些发现强调了感知负担作为一个风险因素的相关性，并表明生活意义对慢性疼痛患者的保护价值。
