Attachment-Related Representations and Suicidal Ideations in Nonsuicidal Self-Injury Adolescents with and without Suicide Attempts: A Pilot Study
Objectives: Consistent with the debate surrounding the association between nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), suicidal intent, and suicidal behavior, and between NSSI and dysregulation processes, we attempted to analyze suicide intent and emotion dysregulation in NSSI adolescents, in the framework of the attachment representations and exploring these clues of emotion dysregulation characteristics of insecure attachment.
