Text

We examined five sets of possible predictors of suicide attempts among ideators: socio-demographics, parental psychopathology, childhood adversities, respondent history of past suicidal behaviors, and 12-month respondent DSM-IV mental disorders. Each of these five has been found to predict suicide attempts in previous studies. The socio-demographics module assessed six previously documented predictors of suicide attempts: age, gender, education, family income, marital status, and employment.1, 14–16
