Suicide is a pressing community mental health problem, yet remains under investigated in certain vulnerable populations such as the bondage and sadomasochism (BDSM) community. As reflected by the Need for Affect (NFA), the present paper aims to test a new approach to understanding suicide risk from a Preferences in Information Processing perspective. Adult participants (n = 2,097) drawn from community, college, and BDSM community samples completed a health survey via online administration. Bivariate tests were used to identify correlates of elevated suicide risk, and logistic regression was employed to test primary hypotheses. Results yielded the following indicators of elevated suicide risk category membership: (1) female gender, (2) BDSM community membership, (3) lesbian, gay, bisexual and other sexual orientation identity minority status, (4) elevated depressive symptoms, (5) elevated NFA approach, and (6) elevated NFA Avoidance. BDSM and NFA results are largely new, and speak to the need for further a...

在三个社区样本中，需要的情感和性别可以区分自杀风险吗？

自杀是一个迫在眉睫的社区心理健康问题，但对于某些弱势人群，如奴役和受虐狂（BDSM）社区，自杀问题仍在调查中。正如需要影响（NFA）所反映的那样，本论文旨在测试一种从信息处理偏好的角度理解自杀风险的新方法。从社区，大学和BDSM社区样本中抽取的成年参与者（n = 2,097）通过在线管理完成了健康调查。使用双变量检验来确定自杀风险升高的相关性，并使用逻辑回归检验原始假设。结果得出以下自杀风险类别成员资格升高的指标：（1）女性，（2）BDSM社区成员，（3）女同性恋，男同性恋，双性恋者和其他性取向认同者的少数群体地位，（4）抑郁症状升高，（5）NFA入路升高，以及（6）NFA避免率升高。BDSM和NFA的结果在很大程度上是新的，并表明需要进一步改善。
