“…The 12‐month prevalences of suicidal ideation (9.7%), plan (4.0%), and attempt (3.0%) in our cohort of Chinese MSM were similar to the 12‐month rates from a recent survey of young Chinese LGBs in Shanghai (ideation: 9.43%, attempt: 2.53%) (Lian, Zuo, Lou, Gao, & Cheng, ), the 6‐month rates of Chinese MSM in Mianyang City (ideation: 9.0%, plan: 4.5%, attempt: 3.5%) (Wang et al, ), and Hefei City (ideation: 10.5%, attempt: 3.9%) (Zhang et al, ), but lower than the lifetime prevalences of MSM in 9 large cities in China (ideation: 26.0%, attempt: 12.6%) (Chen, Li, Wang, & Zhang, ), and the 6‐month prevalence in Wuhan City (ideation: 18.6%, attempt: 10.7%) (Zheng et al, ). However, it is difficult to compare these previous results with our results because the study populations had major differences in age structure and used different definitions of suicidal behaviors.…”
