A number of studies have examined the direct effects of social support, depression, and parental monitoring on suicide ideation. However, less is known about the mediation and moderation effects of social support, depression, and parental monitoring on suicide ideation among adolescents. To determine how suicide ideation is associated with an adolescent’s social support, depression, and parental monitoring, authors analyzed data drawn from the 2016 wave of the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. The total sample consisted of 14,272 participants, ages 12 to 17; 51.1 percent were male and 48.9 percent female. By using the PROCESS macro, the authors tested the mediation effect of depression between social support and suicide ideation moderated by parental monitoring. Depression mediated the correlation between social support and suicide ideation. Parental monitoring moderated the mediation effect of depression between social support and suicide ideation. These findings provide specific directions to develop and culturally tailor effective suicide intervention programs for adolescents with histories of depression to reduce their suicidal behavior.

社会支持和父母监督对自杀的缓冲作用

 

许多研究调查了社会支持、抑郁和父母监督对自杀意念的直接影响。然而，关于社会支持、抑郁和父母监督对青少年自杀意念的中介和调节作用知之甚少。为了确定自杀意念如何与青少年的社会支持、抑郁和父母监督有关，作者分析了 2016 年全国药物使用和健康调查浪潮中的数据。总样本包括 14,272 名参与者，年龄在 12 至 17 岁之间；51.1% 是男性，48.9% 是女性。通过使用 PROCESS 宏，作者测试了抑郁在父母监督下的社会支持和自杀意念之间的中介作用。抑郁介导了社会支持与自杀意念之间的相关性。父母监督调节了抑郁症在社会支持和自杀意念之间的中介作用。这些发现为为有抑郁症史的青少年开发和制定有效的自杀干预计划提供了具体的方向，以减少他们的自杀行为。
