abstract="Suicide involves ideations and/or attempts that can lead to death. Its increase in adolescence demands preventive and health-promoting public policies. <br><br>OBJECTIVES: 1) to disclose, by means of documentary analysis, the indexes and methods of suicide by sex in a city of Goiás between the years of 2005 and 2012; 2) to endorse the preva-lence of ideation and attempted suicide among adolescents; 3) to assess a relationship between idea and suicide attempt and behavioral problems, and 4) to analyze sociodemographic and clinical risks associated with suicide attempts. A probabilistic sample of 368 adolescents (13 to 18 years old), responded to the Youth Self Report. There is a high prevalence of suicide in the city (M = 2.37 cases/year in a city with approximately 2,200 adolescents). 12.8% of the sample reported attempting suicide, and 18,2% thought to commit suicide, of which 47.8% actually attempted suicide. Ideation and attempted suicide correlated significantly with all behavioral problems surveyed. Variables such as suicidal ideation and type of school were predictors of suicide attempts. © 2021.
