“…The relationship between childhood sexual abuse and suicide attempts has been well-established in both the general population (e.g., Martin, Bergen, Richardson, Roeger, & Allison, 2004) and among offenders (e.g., Rabinovitch, Kerr, Leve, & Chamberlain, 2014;Sarchiapone et al, 2009). Research focused on identifying the types of adverse childhood events that are most strongly associated with suicide attempts and NSSI has produced mixed results, with some finding that sexual and physical abuse are more strongly linked to suicide attempts than other forms of abuse (e.g., Arata, Langhinrichsen-Rohling, Bowers, & O'Farrill-Swails, 2008;Joiner et al, 2007;Ystgaard, Hestetun, Loeb, & Mehlum, 2004), and others' research demonstrating the strongest association between emotional abuse and suicide attempts (e.g., Dube et al, 2001;Tripodi, Onifade, & Pettus-Davis, 2014).…”
