Abstract

Objective: Previous research has revealed that mental health professionals (MHPs) often experience severe, yet varying, levels of short-term impact in the aftermath of client suicide. Individual differences are significant, yet what factors help explain these differences remains unclear. The current study investigated the role of the MHPs' and the clients' age and gender upon the impact of client suicide. Method: An international sample of 213 MHPs, aged between 18 and 75, reported on a client's suicide and its short-term impact (IES-R). Results: The results indicate that both MHPs' and clients' gender did not affect impact. MHPs' and clients' age did not affect impact individually, although a significant interaction effect was revealed. Conclusion: Age, not gender, of the MHP and client are relevant in light of the impact of client suicide. Potential implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.

探讨年龄和性别对心理健康从业人员自杀影响的作用。
目的:先前的研究表明,心理健康专业人员(MHP)在客户自杀后往往会经历严重但不同程度的短期影响。个体差异是显著的,但哪些因素有助于解释这些差异尚不清楚。目前的研究调查了MHP和客户的年龄和性别对客户自杀影响的作用。方法:213名年龄在18岁至75岁之间的MHP的国际样本报告了一名客户的自杀及其短期影响(IES-R)。结果:研究结果表明,MHP和客户的性别均不影响影响。MHP和客户的年龄并没有单独影响影响,尽管显示出显著的交互作用。结论:MHP的年龄,而不是性别,和客户自杀的影响相关。讨论了对未来研究的潜在影响和建议。
