abstract: 'Background: Suicidal ideation is a strong antecedent of suicidal
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
behavior, associated with increased likelihood of suicide. Thus,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suicidal ideation serves to identify which groups are at more risk of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suicide and has policy implications for targeting groups to prevent
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
suicide. Aims: A substantial body of research has addressed potential
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determinants of suicide ideation in Korea. Little attention has been
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
paid, however, to analyzing the extent to which socioeconomic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
attainments (education, household income, and employment status) are
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
associated with risk of suicidal ideation, drawing on nationally
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
representative data. Methods: Data were drawn from the 2012 Korea
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Welfare Panel Study (KOWEPS). Among the 12,606 respondents, the findings
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
are based on 1,500 young adults (age 18-35) and 3,469 middle-aged adults
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(age 36-55) who answered a question about suicidal ideation. Results:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
For young adults, respondents from 2-year and 4-year colleges and higher
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
had lower probabilities of suicidal ideation compared with respondents
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
from high school. People out of the labor force also exhibited an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
elevated risk of suicidal ideation compared with those in waged
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment. Middle-aged adults displayed different patterns. Middle-aged
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
respondents from 4-year colleges or higher had an increased likelihood
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of suicidal ideation. The likelihood of reporting suicidal ideation was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
predicted to decrease as household income increased only for middle-aged
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
adults. Conclusions: The information about suicidal ideation was
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
obtained from only one question of self-response, which limits the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
validity of the suicidal ideation measurement. The cross-sectional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
setting of the data prevents us from estimating causal relationships.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Nevertheless, the findings imply that age-specific policy should be
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
implemented to ameliorate differential risk for suicidal ideation and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
benefit public mental health in the long run.'
