Resumen
Los comportamientos suicidas en la adolescencia se han convertido en un grave problema de salud pública. En este sentido es menester preguntarse por aquellos factores que puede ayudar a la comprensión y prevención de estos comportamientos, y que deben ser considerados para estimar el grado de riesgo de suicidio y de planificar intervenciones. La literatura disponible indica que existen diferentes factores –cognitivos, emocionales e interpersonales- que pueden actuar como factores protectores ante la suicidalidad, o bien, factores de riesgo que aumentan la probabilidad del adolescente de involucrarse en este tipo de comportamientos autodestructivos. El presente estudio transversal se propuso estudiar la relación entre riesgo suicida y tres factores interpersonales–soledad, aislamiento social y apoyo social percibido– en adolescentes escolarizados de la ciudad de Necochea (Prov. de Buenos Aires, Argentina). Se aplicaron tres medidas de autoinforme a 99 adolescentes escolarizados necochenses (64,6% mujeres; Medad = 16,43; DS = 0,98). Los resultados muestran que la experiencia de soledad (r = .68**) y el apoyo social de padres (r = -.57**) y de compañeros de clase (r = .60**) exhiben las asociaciones de mayor magnitud con riesgo de suicidio. Se discuten los resultados y su potencial impacto.
Adolescents' suicidal behaviors have become a major public health concern. In this sense, it is necessary to reflecton those factors that may help to understand and prevent such behaviors and to be considered to estimate the suicide risk degree and to plan interventions. Available literature points out that there are different factors –cognitive, emotional and interpersonal- which may act as protective factors to suicidal condition, or risk factors that enhance the adolescent's probability of engaging withsuch behaviors. Thepresent cross-sectionalstudy was aimed to study the relationship between suicide risk and three interpersonal factors –loneliness, social isolation and perception of social support- in high school adolescents from the Necocheacity- Buenos Aires province, Argentina. Three self-report measures were administered to 99 Necochenses high school adolescents (64,6% women; Mage = 16,43; DS = 0,98). Results show that the experience of loneliness(r = .68**) and the parents' perceived social support (r = -.57**) and classmates (r = .60**) show greater degree associations with suicide risk.Results and their potential impact are discussed.
