Abstract:
The current study was to examine the relationship among depressive symptoms, post-traumatic stress symptoms, emotion regulatory self-efficacy and suicide risk. A cross-sectional survey was conducted among 3257 graduate students from a medical college of China. Lifetime prevalence of suicidal ideation, plan and attempt were 25.7%, 1.6%, 1.1%, respectively, with one-year suicidal ideation showing at 6.3%. Structural equation modeling was employed to examine the relative contribution of depressive symptoms, post-traumatic stress symptoms and emotion regulatory self-efficacy on suicide risk. Structural equation model had a highly satisfactory fit [χ2=7.782, df=4, p=0.096; MSEA=0.021; CFI=0.992; GFI=0.997]. Post-traumatic stress symptoms had a direct effect and an indirect effect on suicide risk via emotion regulatory self-efficacy. pressive symptoms also had a direct effect and an indirect effect on suicide risk via emotion regulatory self-efficacy. The depressive and post-traumatic stress symptoms increased the risk of suicide risk, but the variable of emotion regulatory self–efficacy would be served as a buffering factor, decreasing the risk of suicide. The interaction term of depressive symptoms and post-traumatic stress symptoms had a direct effect on suicide risk. A significant interactive effect of depressive and post-traumatic stress symptoms on suicide risk was found.
The purpose of this study is to explore depressive symptoms 、 Post traumatic stress symptoms 、 Relationship between emotional regulation self-efficacy and suicide risk . To a medical school 3257 A cross-sectional survey was conducted among graduate students . Lifelong suicidal thoughts , The incidence of planning and trying is 25.7％,1.6％,1.1％, The incidence of suicidal ideation in one year is 6.3％. Using structural equation model to study depressive symptoms 、 The relative contribution of post-traumatic stress symptoms and emotional regulation self-efficacy to suicide risk . The fitting degree of structural equation model is [χ2=7.782, df=4, p=0.096; MSEA=0.021; CFI=0.992; GFI=0.997]. Post traumatic stress symptoms have direct and indirect effects on suicide risk through emotional regulation self-efficacy . Depressive symptoms also have direct and indirect effects on suicide risk through emotional regulation self-efficacy . Depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms increase the risk of suicide , But the variables of emotional regulation self-efficacy can be used as promoting factors , Reduce the risk of suicide . The interaction between depressive symptoms and post-traumatic stress symptoms has a direct impact on the risk of suicide . Depression and post-traumatic stress symptoms have a significant interaction on suicide risk .
