abstract="The study explores the accuracy of prevalence estimations for suicide attempts. Data come from the Early-Developmental-Stages-of- Psychopathology (EDSP)-Study, a prospective community study (mean follow-up period = 42 months) of 3,021 respondents aged 14 to 24 years at outset of the study. Suicide attempters are at least 1.6 times more likely to drop out than subjects without suicide attempts and suicidal ideas. A total of 8% of all suicide attempters answered in the negative the depression-related gate questions of all surveys. One third of all baseline suicide attempters did not report their suicide attempt again at the four years later assessment. Inparticular, 80% of all non-reporters were female, and almost 60% were aged 14-17 at baseline.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
