“…Consistent with previous studies and following the first hypothesis of the present study, unemployment has been described as a predictor of suicide attempts in the case of GD ( Guillou-Landreat et al., 2016 ; Komoto, 2014 ; Newman & Thompson, 2007 ; Thon et al., 2014 ), in BN ( Forcano et al., 2009 ; Goldstein & Gvion, 2019 ; Nickel et al., 2006 ) and in the general population irrespectively of the presence of a mental disorder ( Blakely et al., 2003 ; Haw, Hawton, Gunnell, & Platt, 2015 ; Nordt, Warnke, Seifritz, & Kawohl, 2015 ). The relevance of unemployment may be interpreted by the fact that it is often associated with previous social maladjustment ( Sciulli, 2016 ) as well as great difficulties to overcome financial problems due to a lack of a regular income and low levels of subjective well-being ( Paul, Vastamäki, & Moser, 2016 ). Another interesting finding was that an early onset of the disorder was associated with a greater likelihood of a suicide attempt later in life.…”

Background and aims Mental disorders with high levels of impulsivity such as bulimic spectrum eating disorders (BSED) and gambling disorder (GD) are associated with high risk of suicidal behavior. The aim of the present study was to identify the common and differential vulnerability factors behind suicide attempts in a sample of patients with BSED compared to patients with GD. Methods A total of 6,077 adults who sought treatment and met criteria either for BSED (n = 2,391) or GD (n = 3,686) were assessed at a specialized hospital unit. Personality traits, psychopathological symptomatology, lifetime history of suicide attempts and socio-demographic variables were evaluated. Results The prevalence of suicide attempts was higher for BSED patients (26.2%) compared to GD patients (7.1%) being anorexia nervosa (Binge/Purge type) and bulimia nervosa the most affected subtypes. In the predictive model, the transdiagnostic vulnerability factors with the highest contribution to the risk of suicidal behavior both in BSED and GD were unemployment, early age of onset of the disorder, worse psychopathological state, and self-transcendence personality trait. However, specific risk factors for suicidal acts were identified in each disorder: longer duration of the disorder, lower education levels and reward dependence were exclusively associated with BSED while female gender, older age, and higher harm avoidance were associated with GD. Discussion Patients with GD and BSED share certain vulnerability factors although certain factors are exclusive to each disorder. Conclusions Interventions need to pay special attention to both common and specific vulnerability factors to mitigate the risk of suicidal acts in these disorders.

I investigated the effects of adolescents' attitudes toward risk on their choice of employment sector in adulthood. I employed a joint model of employment sector choice and three-dimensional background characteristics to demonstrate that employment preference is an inverse function of the degree of relative risk aversion. Empirical data was obtained from longitudinal data, and a logit model was applied to estimate the effects of the three-dimensional background characteristics on the risk-taking attitudes and employment choices. I observed that individuals with a higher tendency to engage in risky experiences exhibit low risk aversion, and thus, tend to choose a riskier employment sector.
