Description
Summary:The objective of the present study was to compare the suicidal risk among adolescents with and without a history of suicidal behavior, in a sample selected incidentally consisting of 121 adolescents (92.6% women and 7.4% men) aged between 12 and 17 years. years. The methodological approach to the data is of a quantitative nature, with a non-experimental design, an investigative scope of an ex post facto type. A sociodemographic questionnaire and the Scale for the Evaluation of Suicide Risk in Adolescents - ERS were applied in both samples to analyze if there were differences between the groups, for this the student's t-test was used. The results of this study contributed to the predictive validity of the Scale for the Assessment of Suicide Risk in adolescents - ERS, since it is found that adolescents who have carried out previous suicide behaviors score higher in the suicide risk dimensions of depression-hopelessness , family dysfunction or lack of family support, self-harm-suicidal ideation and social isolation, than those without a suicidal background. El objetivo del presente estudio fue comparar el riesgo suicida entre adolescentes con y sin antecedentes de conductas suicidas, en una muestra seleccionada incidentalmente conformada por 121 adolescentes (92,6% mujeres y 7,4% varones) con edades comprendidas entre los 12 a 17 años. El abordaje metodológico de los datos es de corte cuantitativo, con un diseño no experimental, un alcance investigativo de tipo ex post facto. Se aplicó en ambas muestras un cuestionario sociodemográfico y la Escala para la Evaluación de Riesgo Suicida en Adolescentes – ERS para analizar si existían diferencias entre los grupos, para ello se empleó la prueba t de student. Los resultados del presente estudio contribuyeron a la validez predictiva de la Escala para la Evaluación de Riesgo Suicida en adolescentes – ERS, pues se comprueba que los adolescentes que han realizado conductas previas de suicidio puntúan más alto en las dimensiones del riesgo suicida de depresión-desesperanza, ...
