“…20 Frequent awakening, or middle insomnia, was associated with SI in the present study. A recent study 21 also suggested that middle insomnia predicted suicidal acts in adolescence. Another study 22 reported that middle and late insomnia increase the risk of suicidal attempts in adult patients with depression.…”

“…Suicidal thoughts were, however, present in childhood cancer survivors in equal frequency as in the controls, and a plan for suicide was present in both groups in 8.7% (9). It has been recommended that depressive disorder should alert for risk assesment of suicidal adolescents (10).…”

Objective. Suicide is one of the causes of late mortality among childhood cancer survivors. The aim of our study was to analyse the risk of suicide among childhood cancer survivors compared with that of the general population of Slovenia. Patients and methods. This retrospective study included patients with childhood cancer registered at the Cancer Registry of Slovenia between 1978-2008, with an observation period of 1978-2010. Childhood cancer patients and control subjects from the general population of Slovenia were matched by sex, year and age at the beginning of follow-up and time of follow-up in years. Data on the general population of Slovenia were obtained from the Statistical Office of the Republic of Slovenia. Results. A total of 1647 patients were recorded in the Cancer Registry as having cancer during childhood, with 3 patients committing suicide. All three were male. Their age at diagnosis of cancer was 12, 13 and 2 years old; their age at suicide was 19, 32 and 28 years old. The mechanism of death was asphyxiation in all three deaths. The calculation of the expected number of suicides in the group of individuals with childhood cancer from the general Slovene population revealed the number of 3.16 persons. Conclusion. The comparison of the observed and expected probability showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the suicide rate between childhood cancer survivors and the general population of Slovenia.

“…As discussed above, establishing adequate construct validity includes identifying differential associations between items within and between symptom domains. As such, MFQ items assessing symptoms more unique to depression (e.g., cognitive vs. somatic symptoms) have helped to distinguish depressive disorders from general distress among youth with multiple psychiatric diagnoses (Brodbeck et al 2011;Brodbeck et al 2014;Diler et al 2007) and have also demonstrated predictive value for critical outcomes such as suicidality (Hammerton et al 2014;Nrugham et al 2008). For researchers and clinicians primarily interested in criterion validity, a shortened, unidimensional, 13-item version of the MFQ with adequate criterion validity is available Messer et al 1995).…”

The current investigation examined the internal structure and discriminant validity of the parent-report Mood and Feelings Questionnaire (MFQ-P), a commonly used measure of depressive symptoms in youth. A total of 1493 families with youth ages 5 to 18 (61.02 % male) presenting for treatment at an outpatient mental health clinic were randomly allocated to an Exploratory Sample 1 or to a Replication Sample 2. Internal structure of the MFQ-P was examined using exploratory factor analysis in Sample 1 (N = 769) and then replicated using confirmatory factor analysis in Sample 2 (N = 724). Results of the exploratory factor analysis yielded a 5-factor structure comprised of core mood, vegetative, suicidality, cognitive, and agitated distress symptom subscales. The 5-factor solution was replicated in Sample 2 with adequate fit, (CFI = 0.908, TLI = 0.974, RMSEA =0.067). Results lend statistical support for 5 candidate subscales of the MFQ-P. These potential subscales may aid in efficient identification of critical symptoms of depression.
