Abstract |
The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship of resilience and suicidal ideation with quality of life in 50 adolescent sexual abuse victims from Bogotá City, Colombia. The design was ex-post-facto correlational and cross-sectional. Participants completed the Adolescent Resilience Scale (ARS), the Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation Inventory (PANSI), and the health and wellbeing scale for children and adolescents KIDSCREEN-52. At a descriptive level, moderate levels of resilience, low quality of life and high levels of suicidal ideation were found. Correlation analysis showed that resilience was negatively related to suicidal ideation and positively to quality of life, whereas suicidal ideation was negatively related to quality of life. In conclusion, resilience is a variable which protects against suicidal thinking and promotes quality of life in adolescents victims of sexual abuse. Language: es |
