Popis:	Deliberate self-harm (DSH) in adolescence is a predictor of suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs). However, there is still a lack of research systematizing the association between DSH and STBs. Therefore, our main goal was to analyze if DSH diversity and severity predicted suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. Our sample comprised 237 Portuguese adolescents and young adults with a history of DSH, from community (80.2%, n = 190) and clinical (19.8%, n = 47) settings, aged between 14 and 23 years (M = 17.31, SD=1.36). Results showed that DSH diversity and severity were significant predictors of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts.

Results showed that DSH diversity and severity were significant predictors of suicidal ideation and suicide attempts. These results were further discussed, underlining the impact that DSH has for suicide risk and highlighting the need to address further variables to understand these suicidality trajectories. info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion
