Abstract

Introduction: Emotional dysregulation is among the psychological factors involved in the risk of suicide among patients with psychiatric disorders.

Aim: The present study aimed to examine the correlation between cognitive reappraisal and suppression-two strategies for emotional regulation-and the risk of suicide among patients diagnosed with bipolar disorder.

Method: This study was conducted as a cross-sectional, descriptive and correlational study. A simple random sample of 100 patients meeting the inclusion criteria and providing informed consent comprised the study sample. The Suicide Probability Scale (SPS), Emotional Regulation Questionnaire (ERQ), Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) and Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) were used to collect data.

Results: The participants' mean scores for reappraisal and suppression subscales of ERQ were 26.84 ± 5.8 and 14.22 ± 3.65, respectively. The SPS total mean score of the participants was 90.84 ± 5.5. The mean score of the participants who attempted suicide on the suppression subscale of the ERQ was higher than the score of those who did not attempt suicide.

Discussion: The results of the study showed that patients with euthymic bipolar disorder who were hospitalised in a psychiatric clinic and were at the discharge stage had a high risk of suicide.

Implications for practice: Planning and implementing clinical procedures by mental health and psychiatric nurses to improve patients' emotional regulation strategies and prevent suicide will help manage suicide risk.

双相情感障碍患者自杀风险与情绪调节策略的相关性：一项横断面研究。

简介：情绪失调是精神障碍患者自杀风险的心理因素之一。目的：本研究旨在探讨双相情感障碍患者的两种情绪调节策略——认知重评和抑制与自杀风险之间的关系。方法：本研究采用横断面、描述性和相关性研究。符合纳入标准并提供知情同意的100例患者的简单随机样本构成研究样本。采用自杀概率量表（SPS）、情绪调节问卷（ERQ）、青年躁狂症评定量表（YMRS）和贝克抑郁量表（BDI）收集数据。结果：被试ERQ重评分量表和抑制分量表的平均得分分别为26.84±5.8分和14.22±3.65分。受试者的SPS总平均分为90.84±5.5分。在ERQ的抑制分量表中，自杀未遂者的平均得分高于未自杀未遂者。讨论：研究结果表明，在精神病诊所住院并处于出院阶段的心境双相情感障碍患者有很高的自杀风险。对实践的启示：心理健康和精神科护士规划和实施临床程序，以改善患者的情绪调节策略和预防自杀，将有助于管理自杀风险。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing is an international journal which publishes research and scholarly papers that advance the development of policy, practice, research and education in all aspects of mental health nursing. We publish rigorously conducted research, literature reviews, essays and debates, and consumer practitioner narratives; all of which add new knowledge and advance practice globally. All papers must have clear implications for mental health nursing either solely or part of multidisciplinary practice. Papers are welcomed which draw on single or multiple research and academic disciplines. We give space to practitioner and consumer perspectives and ensure research published in the journal can be understood by a wide audience. We encourage critical debate and exchange of ideas and therefore welcome letters to the editor and essays and debates in mental health.
