abstract="INTRODUCTION: Over 90% of all adolescent suicides occur in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), yet the majority of suicide research has focused on primarily high-income countries (HIC). <br><br>METHOD: Using nationally representative data on 82,494 adolescents from thirty-four LMIC, this research employed machine learning to compare the predictive effects of multiple determinants of suicidal behaviors previously identified in the literature. <br><br>RESULTS: Results indicate that distinct predictors are present for suicidal ideation, suicidal planning, and suicide attempts in youth living in LMIC as well as shared predictors common to all three behaviors. <br><br>CONCLUSION: These findings provide insights into the unique needs in global mental health policy and efforts within and across adolescents in LMIC.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
