Prevalence and Psychological Correlates of Occasional and Repetitive Deliberate Self-harm in Adolescents

Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine · 2007 · Vol. 161(7) · pp. 641–641

Abstract

The data suggest that there is a link between social factors and occasional DSH and, especially in repetitive DSH, that there is a strong association between DSH and suicidal behavior as well as DSH and emotional and behavioral problems. These findings indicate a different pathway in the development of DSH in adolescents. The results support a need to investigate the possible neurobiological underpinnings of DSH within a longitudinal model to enhance the knowledge of this poorly understood behavior.
