Abstract

[Objective]To investigate the current situation of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers and analyze its influencing factors.[Methods]From January to November 2020, a stratified sampling method was used to investigate 707 teenagers in Guangdong. The"questionnaire of health-related behaviors of Chinese teenagers"compiled by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention was used anonymously to investigate the current situation of suicidal self-injurious behavior of the teenagers. The chi-square test was used for univariate analysis, and logistic regression was used for multivariate analysis.[Results]The incidence rate of suicidal self-injurious behavior was 14.57%(103/707). It was 13.31%(45/338)in males, 15.72%(58/369)in females, 13.83%(48/347)in junior high school students and 15.28%(55/360)in senior high school students. There was no statistical significance in the incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior of teenagers between different genders, different learning stages, smoking or not, asexual behavior or not, gambling or not, and fighting or not(all P>0.05). The incidence of suicidal self-injurious behaviors in teenagers from single parent family, drunkenness, runaway, loneliness, under great study pressure, lovelorn, and mobile phone addiction was significantly higher(χ2=13.809, 10.852, 14.279, 11.451, 12.893, 22.905, 19.473, respectively. All P<0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the following were main risk factors affecting the incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers:single parent family(OR=3.826, 95%CI:1.402-7.501), drunkenness(OR=3.903, 95%CI:1.512-7.368), runaway(OR=3.447, 95%CI:1.669-7.715), loneliness(OR=3.613, 95%CI:1.504-7.697), great study pressure(OR=3.712, 95%CI:1.387-7.604), lovelorn(OR=4.125, 95%CI:1.516-8.117)and mobile phone addiction(OR= 4.027, 95%CI:1.499-7.984(all P<0.001).[Conclusion]The incidence of suicidal self-injurious behavior in teenagers is not low in Guangdong, and targeted measures should be developed to screen and intervene based on the influencing factors. © 2021 Editorial Office of Shanghai Journal of Preventive Medicine.
