    Chronological age, not puberty, was linked to suicidal thoughts in children and adolescents. This finding was consistent across both genders in a child psychiatry service sample.

    Area of Science:

    • Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
    • Developmental Psychology
    • Mental Health Research

    Background:

    • Suicidal ideation is a significant concern in pediatric populations.
    • The roles of chronological age and pubertal development in suicidal ideation require further clarification.
    • Understanding these factors is crucial for early identification and intervention in child psychiatry.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the association between chronological age and pubertal status with suicidal ideation in children and adolescents.
    • To determine if chronological age or pubertal development is a stronger predictor of suicidal ideation.
    • To examine these associations in both male and female participants.

    Main Methods:

    • A cross-sectional study was conducted on 1,060 children and adolescents.

  • Participants were referred to a child psychiatry service in Perth, Western Australia.
  • Data on chronological age, pubertal status, and suicidal ideation were collected.

    • Main Results:

    • Chronological age demonstrated a significant association with suicidal ideation in both sexes.
    • Pubertal status was not significantly associated with suicidal ideation in this sample.
    • The findings suggest age is a more critical factor than puberty in this age group.

    Conclusions:

    • Chronological age is a more relevant factor than pubertal development in the context of suicidal ideation among children and adolescents.
    • These results have implications for risk assessment and targeted interventions in pediatric mental health services.
    • Further research should explore the underlying mechanisms linking age and suicidal ideation in youth.
