TY - JOUR PY - 2009// TI - Hope as a Predictor of Interpersonal Suicide Risk JO - Suicide and life-threatening behavior A1 - Davidson, Collin L. A1 - Wingate, LaRicka R. A1 - Rasmussen, Kathy A. A1 - Slish, Meredith L. SP - 499 EP - 507 VL - 39 IS - 5 N2 - The current study hypothesized that (1) hope would negatively predict burdensomeness, thwarted belongingness, and acquired capability to enact lethal injury; (2) hope would negatively predict suicidal ideation; and (3) the interpersonal suicide risk factors would predict suicidal ideation. Results indicated that hope negatively predicted burdensomeness and thwarted belongingness, but positively predicted acquired capability to enact suicide. Contrary to our second hypothesis, hope did not predict suicidal ideation, but interpersonal risk factors for suicide predicted suicidal ideation. Results are discussed in terms of implications for hope theory and Joiner's (2005) interpersonal risk factors for suicide, and for clinical practice.
