Abstract

ABSTRACT Some students with gifts and talents (SWGT) are among the thousands of youths who die by suicide every year, although there is no way to know how many. Research indicates they are not more likely to engage in suicidal behaviors than other students. They do have unique risk and protective factors, however. Risk factors can accumulate to outweigh protective factors, causing a downward trajectory toward psychache, a condition of intense psychological pain and hopelessness. Without intervention, SWGT suffering from psychache are in imminent danger of suicide. This paper outlines an ecological model of suicidal behavior among SWGT that provides an explanation and framework for future research and prevention efforts.

资优学生自杀行为的生态模型

摘要每年有成千上万的年轻人自杀身亡，但其中不乏天赋异禀的学生。研究表明，与其他学生相比，他们不太可能有自杀行为。然而，它们确实具有独特的风险和保护因素。风险因素的积累可能超过保护因素，导致心理疼痛的下降轨迹，这是一种强烈的心理痛苦和绝望的状态。如果不进行干预，患有精神疼痛的SWGT将面临迫在眉睫的自杀危险。本文概述了SWGT自杀行为的生态学模型，为未来的研究和预防工作提供了解释和框架。

期刊介绍： High Ability Studies provides a forum for scholars in a variety of disciplines associated with the development of human abilities to their highest level. It is a medium for the promotion of high ability, whether through the communication of scientific research, theory, or the exchange of practical experience and ideas. The contents of this journal are unique in reflecting concerns and recent developments in this area from childhood and across the whole life span in a variety of contexts. Far from being restricted to the traditional focus on high-level cognitive development, it also presents investigations into all other areas of human endeavour, including sport, technology, the arts, business, management and social relations.
