Specifically, the study focused on the mediating role of identity confusion and the moderating role of intentional self-regulation in this association.Methods: Three waves of data (T1, T2, and T3) were collected at 6-month intervals between May 2023 and May 2024. A total of 564 Chinese adolescents from four schools in Central China (54.3% boys; Mage at T1 = 14.48 years) completed questionnaires regarding harsh parenting (T1), identity confusion (T2), intentional self-regulation (T2), and NSSI (T1 and T3). All measures used in this study have demonstrated good reliability and validity in prior research.Results: The results of the structural equation modeling indicated a mediation process in which T1 harsh parenting positively predicted T2 identity confusion, which subsequently predicted higher T3 NSSI. Furthermore, the latent moderated structural equations analysis revealed that T2 intentional self-regulation buffered the effect of T2 identity confusion on T3 NSSI, thereby mitigating the mediation process.Conclusions: The results of this study illustrate how harsh parenting, identity confusion, and intentional self-regulation contribute to NSSI and offer recommendations for preventing and addressing NSSI among adolescents.","PeriodicalId":8325,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Suicide Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-18"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145298284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To empirically test this proposition, the current study examined the moderating roles of self-efficacy to resist NSSI, cognitive reappraisal, and expressive suppression in the relationships between outcome expectancies and NSSI frequency among university students.Method: 559 university students (M = 20.7 years, 74.2% female, 40.3% with a NSSI history) completed an online self-report questionnaire.Results: Self-efficacy to resist NSSI was a strong protective factor by diminishing the strength of the associations between expectations of affect regulation, communication, and negative self-beliefs and NSSI frequency. The relationships between outcome expectancies and self-efficacy to resist NSSI in predicting self-injury were further contingent on a person's use of expressive suppression. Specifically, a tendency to use expressive suppression strengthened the risk associated with the relationship between affect-regulatory expectancies and self-efficacy to resist NSSI, b = 1.05 [.64, 1.46], t = 5.04, p < .001, and attenuated the protection conferred by the relationship between negative self-beliefs expectancies and self-efficacy, b = -.17 [-.34, -.00], t = -2.02, p = .04.Conclusions: In collectively examining the cognitive-emotional correlates of NSSI, the current findings empirically support the Cognitive-Emotional Model of NSSI and highlight the potential utility of targeting outcome expectancies and self-efficacy to resist NSSI in prevention and intervention initiatives.","PeriodicalId":8325,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Suicide Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145211488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, differences in suicidal behavior between sexual orientation groups among students in Lithuania remain underexplored.Method: Data were collected via an online survey of students from 17 higher education institutions in Lithuania. Participants answered sociodemographic questions, reported suicidal thoughts and attempts at various time periods, and completed the PHQ-4. Prevalence was calculated for the full sample and sexual orientation groups. Logistic regression examined associations between suicidal behavior and sexual orientation, controlling for confounding variables.Results: The full sample included 2,012 participants (ages 18-29, M = 21.62, SD = 2.35), of whom 13.5% identified as bisexual and 4.4% as lesbian/gay. Suicidal thoughts were reported by 40.7%-63.6% of heterosexual, 53.4%-76.1% of lesbian/gay students, and 66.5%-89.7% of bisexual students.

This systematic review synthesizes evidence from 11 neuroimaging studies to explore the neural correlates of ER deficits in individuals with STBs. Findings revealed that individuals with STBs exhibit heightened activation in the dorsolateral and ventrolateral prefrontal cortex during ER tasks, alongside increased amygdala reactivity to negative stimuli (e.g., sad facial expressions), in implicit ER paradigms. Heterogeneity in prefrontal cortex activation suggests that task- and population-specific neural signatures may influence these patterns. Our review also identifies methodological limitations in the current literature, including a reliance on cross-sectional designs and small sample sizes, which limit generalizability. These limitations highlight the need for longitudinal and multi-modal studies to better understand the dynamic neural patterns associated with ER and STBs. By elucidating the neural underpinnings of ER deficits in STBs, these findings may enable earlier identification of at-risk individuals and the development of personalized, targeted interventions (e.g., transcranial magnetic stimulation).","PeriodicalId":8325,"journal":{"name":"Archives of Suicide Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-21"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145102557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Depressive disorders are characterized by overgeneralized and negative memory patterns, which impair future-oriented thinking and exacerbate hopelessness. Current evaluations of autobiographical memory are subjective and limited by human bias. In this study, we applied Natural Language Processing using Large Language Models (LLMs) to analyze autobiographical memory narratives, uncovering that their valence can predict depression, suicidal ideation, and prior suicide attempts. Furthermore, valence correlated with core components of the Three-Step Theory of suicide, such as hopelessness and lack of connectedness. By integrating advanced computational techniques, our approach demonstrated high predictive accuracy and offers a scalable, objective method for assessing suicide risk.

Family members had a range of relationships to the young person; four were brothers, two were mothers, two were fathers, and one was a cousin.

Despite international evidence, suicidality among Austrian farmers remains unstudied. This study compared suicidal ideation between Austrian farmers (n = 2,006) and the general population (n = 2,007), while identifying sociodemographic, occupational, and behavioral risk factors of suicidality in farmers.Method: Data were collected via online surveys (October 2024-February 2025), utilizing the PHQ-9 for suicidal ideation and the Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R) for suicidality and analyzed with Chi-square tests and logistic regression models adjusted for age and gender disparities.Results: Farmers reported significantly higher suicidal ideation (19.7%) than the general population (14.3%; χ2 = 20.62, p < .001), with 1.4 times greater age- and gender- adjusted odds (95% CI:1.17-1.64). Key risk factors for suicidality in farmers included financial distress (very poor vs. very good: aOR = 2.64, p = .008), high agricultural workload (aOR = 1.01/hour, p = .03), and residing in Eastern Austria vs. Western Austria (aOR = 1.76, p = .003). Protective factors included physical activity outside work (aOR = 0.65, p = .005) and living in a relationship (aOR = 0.61, p = .024).Conclusions: This study highlights increased suicidal ideation among farmers compared to the general population.
