摘要
The present study examined differences in hopelessness, impulsiveness and suicide intent between suicide attempters with either major depression or alcohol dependence, comorbid major depression and alcohol dependence, and those without these disorders. A sample of 114 patients from consecutive cases of attempted suicide referred to a general hospital in Helsinki was interviewed and diagnosed according to DSM-III-R. Suicide intent was measured by the Beck Suicide Intent Scale (SIS) and hopelessness was assessed by the Beck Hopelessness Scale (HS). Impulsiveness of the suicide attempt was measured by two items of the SIS. Suicide attempters with major depression without comorbid alcohol dependence had higher suicide intent and lower impulsiveness than attempters with non-depressive alcohol dependence. Suicide attempts may differ between subjects with major depression, alcoholism or both disorders in terms of impulsiveness and suicide intent.
