Феномен безнадежности и гендерный тип суицидальности в связи с факторно-аналитической структурой личности

Abstract

The article is analysing personality traits (Big Five) of different groups of suicide attempters that demonstrate the typical patterns of suicidal behavior of men and wom­en according to presence/absence of an important predictor of suicidal tendencies— Hopelessness (H). We studied a group of men who committed severe suicide attempts (including with the use of violent methods), a group of women who committed light suicide attempts (including non-violent method--self-poisoning). Personality variables that are associated with the typical gender patterns of suicidal behavior are: attempt severity–Neurotism and Agreablessness in the group without H, Neuroticism in the group with H) the violent methods of attempt (Agreablessness and Consciousness in the group without H, Extraversion-group with H). The results are discussed in terms of understanding the nature of gender differences in suicidal behavior.
