摘要
This study examined self-harming behaviors among younger and older adults who completed the Self-Harm Inventory (SHI). A 2 (age group)x2 (gender) analysis of variance showed a significant main effect for age such that younger adult students (M=3.42, SD=3.86) had higher SHI total scores than community-dwelling older adults (M=1.58, SD=2.35). Younger adults endorsed Yes responses significantly more frequently than older adults on 13 of 22 items. Future research should examine specific behaviors of older adults who self-harm more frequently and explore relationships between self-harming behaviors and other risk and resiliency factors for elder suicide.
