    Depressed patients exhibit the highest suicide risk, demonstrating greater seriousness of intent and real risk compared to non-depressed individuals. Psychological factors, not age, appear to drive this elevated risk in suicidal behavior.

    Area of Science:

    • Psychiatry
    • Clinical Psychology
    • Mental Health Research

    Context:

    • Investigated 211 individuals presenting with parasuicidal behavior at the Central Institute of Mental Health (CIMH) in Mannheim.
    • Assessed the seriousness of suicidal intent and the actual risk of death using a dual-scale measurement (interviewer and self-rating).

    Purpose:

    • To evaluate the suicide risk in patients exhibiting parasuicidal behavior.
    • To compare suicide risk levels between depressed and non-depressed patient groups.
    • To identify factors contributing to the elevated suicide risk in depressed individuals.

    Summary:

    • Depressed patients demonstrated significantly higher scores on both interviewer and self-rating scales, indicating a greater seriousness of intention and real risk of death.
