Parasuizide bei Kindern und Jugendlichen

Published Online:September 01, 2006https://doi.org/10.1026/0942-5403.13.1.5

Abstract

Zusammenfassung. In dieser Übersichtsarbeit werden spezifische Aspekte parasuizidalen Verhaltens bei Kindern und Jugendlichen dargestellt. Bedeutsame Risikofaktoren sind psychische Störungen der Minderjährigen sowie ein niedriges Funktionsniveau ihrer Familien, aber auch diverse andere personbezogene und psychosoziale Variablen sind überzufällig häufig mit Parasuiziden assoziiert. Eine kleine Untergruppe der Kinder und Jugendlichen zeigt wiederholt auftretendes parasuizidales Verhalten. Diagnostische und therapeutische Implikationen der dargestellten wissenschaftlichen Befunde werden erörtet.


Parasuicide in children and adolescents

Abstract. This review focuses on specific aspects of parasuicidal behavior in children and adolescents. Significant risk factors are psychiatric disorders in the child or adolescent as well as a low level of functioning in the family. However, there are also a considerable number of other individual and psychosocial variables that are statistically associated with parasuicide. A small subgroup of children and adolescents repeatedly show parasuicidal behavior. Implications of the scientific evidence presented for diagnosis and therapy are discussed.
