Public ISBD [article]  inJournal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry > 52-2 (February 2011) . - p.176-183 Titre : Young people’s risk of suicide attempts in relation to parental death: a population-based register study Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ida SKYTTE JAKOBSEN, Auteur Année de publication : 2011 Article en page(s) : p.176-183 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Suicide attempt  epidemiology  adolescence  parental loss  risk and protection factors Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Background:  The objective of this study was to examine the association between the death of a biological parent and subsequent suicide attempts by young people (aged 10–22 years), and to explore sociodemographic factors as modifying factors in the process. Methods:  The study used a nested case–control design. The full study population was obtained from the Danish longitudinal registers and included all individuals born between 1983 and 1989 (n = 403,431 individuals). The 3,465 registered suicide attempters from that group were matched with 75,300 population-based control subjects. Potentially confounding variables including age and gender were controlled for by conditional logistic regression analyses. Results:  The findings indicated that young people who had lost one biological parent showed a significantly increased risk of attempting suicide (relative risk = 1.71, 95% confidence interval = 1.49–1.96). Losing the remaining parent nearly doubled the risk (relative risk = 2.7, 95% confidence interval = 1.48–5.06). Conclusion:  Experiencing the death of one or both biological parents increased the risk of suicide attempts in young people. Relative risk was moderated by high income of the father.
