Öz: Çocuk ve ergenlerde intihar girişiminin ve intiharın giderek artması önemli bir sorun haline gelmiştir. Genç ve dinamik bir nüfusa sahip olan ülkemizin sosyal, kültürel ve ekonomik yönden sürekli değişim içinde olması nedeniyle, çocuk ve ergenlerin ruhsal yaşamlarında ortaya çıkan "gel-gitler" önem taşımaktadır. Bu derleme kapsamında intihar girişimleri ve intiharla ilgili tanımlama ve kuramlara yer verilerek, çocuklar ve ergenler açısından intihar girişimi ve intihar ile ilgili risk etkenleri ve tetikleyici etkenler ele alınmıştır. Ülkemizdeki ve diğer ülkelerdeki çalışmalar; cinsiyet, yaş, ırk, medeni durum, sosyal etkenler, intihara ilişkin seçilen yöntemler, önceki intihar girişimleri, inanç, cinsel tercihler, mevsimler, göç, medya, fiziksel ve ruhsal etkenler açısından değerlendirilmiştir. İntihardan ölenlerin sayısı, trafik kazalarından ölenlerin sayısına yakın olup, alınacak önlemlerle trafik kazalarında olduğu gibi intihar girişimlerinin ve intiharların azalabileceği görülmektedir. Önleyici tedbirler arasında bireysel, ailesel, çevresel, toplumsal ve kamusal uygulamaların yerinin önemli olduğu bununla birlikte sağlam bir aile yapısı ve eğitimin; çocuk ve ergen mutluluğu için kaçınılmaz etkenler olduğu gözlenmiştir.Anahtar sözcükler: Çocuk, Ergen, İntihar, İntihar Girişimi Abstract: The increasing rate of attempted suicide and the suicide of children and adolescents is an important problem. The speed and quantity of social, cultural and economic changes in our country has effects upon a young and dynamic population. In consequence of these changes psychological/psychiatric problems may occur in the population and the aim of this review was to consider the definitions, theories, risk and precipitating factors associated with suicide attempts and with suicide in children and adolescents. Gender, age, race, marital status, family and social factors, the method chosen for the suicide, previous suicide attempts, beliefs, sexual orientation, season of the year, the role of the media and of migration were evaluated, in terms of the physical and psychological factors from the relevant literature. The number of deaths from suicide is close to the number of deaths from traffic accidents. Taking precautions may decrease the number of suicides and suicide attempts, as is the case for traffic accidents. The individual, family, environmental, social and public applications are important for effective preventive precautions however, a healthy family and educational structure are the most important factors for the happiness of the child and adolescent.

“…Furthermore, the transition from traditional rural, farming societies with a close social support system to more urban and industrialised societies might have increased the number of people living alone with lower social integration. This has been proposed to have contributed to the increase in suicide rates in Ireland, England, Wales and Belgium [2][3][4]33,34].…”

Youth suicide constitutes a considerable public health problem in many European countries. Suicide mortality in adolescents and young adults has increased during the 1980s and 1990s in several European countries and predominantly in young males. This paper summarises the international discussion on potential reasons for these trends, including changes in ascertainment practices, in the prevalence of psychopathology (mainly depression and substance abuse), in psychosocial and socio-economic conditions and in the methods chosen for suicidal behaviour. Potential reasons for the gender differences in trends are scrutinised.

This study analyses the incidence of suicide among children and young people aged between 10 and 29 in Sweden, during the period 1974-1986. The study comprises 4,624 individuals whose deaths were the outcome of verified, E950-E959 (n = 3,511) and undetermined, E980-E989 (n = 1,113) suicides. Regression analysis of different age groups separately and all age groups combined shows that the frequency of suicide among children and young people in Sweden did not increase in this period. Nonetheless, mortality figures are high, especially for boys and young men aged 15-29. The maximum suicide-mortality rate (43.2 per 10,000) is noted for young men aged 25-29 in 1984. The male-female ratio with respect to deaths from suicide is 2.5 for the entire group, the smallest difference being in the 15-19 age group (1.7) and the largest in the 25-29 age group (2.8). Methods of committing suicide vary between the sexes and the various age groups. Boys and young men use violent methods more often, and this situation has remained stable throughout the 13-year period. Girls use non-violent methods to a greater extent, but young women aged 18-29 use violent and non-violent methods to almost the same extent. During the 13-year period studied, a change took place in the girls' and young women's choice of methods towards more violent methods in the 1980s compared with the 1970s. Regardless of sex, there are significantly (p less than 0.001) fewer married and more divorced people among those committing suicide compared with corresponding age groups in the overall population.
