TY - JOUR PY - 2011// TI - Exploratory study of the relations between sadistic traits and suicidality in a nonclinical sample of adolescents JO - Bulletin of the Menninger Clinic A1 - Chabrol, Henri A1 - van Leeuwen, Nikki A1 - Rodgers, Rachel F. SP - 224 EP - 235 VL - 75 IS - 3 N2 - The present study explored the relations between sadistic traits and suicidality in nonclinical adolescents. Participants were 615 high-school students who completed self-report questionnaires. Hierarchical multiple regression analyses showed that self-reported sadistic traits explained unique variance in self-reported suicidality among both genders. This result is confronted with the psychodynamic hypothesis linking sadism turned inward and suicidality.
