    Background:

    • Adolescent suicide attempts present a significant public health concern.
    • Understanding the psychosocial factors contributing to suicidal behavior in minors is crucial for effective prevention and intervention strategies.

    Observation:

    • The study analyzed 21 pediatric hospital admissions for attempted suicide between 1977 and 1980.
    • Patients ranged in age from 10 to 15 years.
    • Psychosocial assessments and psychological testing were conducted for each case.

    Findings:

    • A non-functioning family relationship was identified as a primary cause of disturbed personality development.
    • Difficulties in personality development led to academic failure, exacerbating family problems.
