Abstrakt: | Introduction: Adolescent suicidal ideation (SI) and nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI) are associated with depression, but few studies adequately represent sexual minorities. Methods: This study investigated whether the association between SI/NSSI and depression varies by sexual orientation. SI, NSSI, sexual orientation, and depressive symptoms were measured in a community sample of adolescent girls (n =1,803). Results: Sexual identity and depression accounted for unique risk for SI and NSSI in logistic regressions. Sexual orientation moderated the association between depression and NSSI. Conclusion: Results indicate that depression is a less specific predictor of NSSI among sexual minority adolescents compared to their heterosexual peers and indicate a need for future research to delineate what psychosocial factors better account for NSSI risk. |
