Exploration of the Short-term Dynamic Variation in Suicidal Ideation and Its Risk Factors among College Students:Based on Interpersonal Theory of Suicide
Objective:To explore the dynamic variation characteristics of thwarted belongingness,perceived burden-someness,hopelessness proposed by the interpersonal theory and suicidal ideation over a short time among college students,as well as test the predictive effectiveness on suicidal ideation and its variation.Methods:Selected by convenient sampling method,thirty-one visitors from universities in Tianjin who were receiving psychological counseling at mental health center were recruited for this study,and ecological momentary assessments were conducted for seven days,five times a day.Re-sults:Suicidal ideation in 30 participants underwent a strong dynamic change over a short period of time,with all partici-pants experiencing dynamic changes in thwarted belongingness,perceived burdensomeness,and hopelessness.All of their time series plots showed saw-tooth pattern,and none of them showed regular pattern over time.The three risk factors showed significant positive correlation with suicidal ideation respectively at the same moment.Hopelessness and thwarted belongingness significantly predicted suicidal ideation at the next moment.When suicidal ideation at the previous moment controlled,the variation in suicidal ideation was only significantly predicted by thwarted belongingness.Conclusion:Sui-cidal ideation as well as thwarted belongingness,perceived burdensomeness,hopelessness among college students might be all dynamic in a short time.Hopelessness and thwarted belongingness can significantly predict suicidal ideation at the next moment,and thwarted belongingness can significantly predict the variation in suicidal ideation over a short time.
