TY - THES AB - Suicide and non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) are major adolescent health concerns, with NSSI increasingly linked to future suicide attempts. This study analyzed data from 872 Oregon adolescents (2008–2010) to compare characteristics of those who attempted suicide versus those engaging in NSSI. Multivariate analysis revealed significant differences in race/ethnicity, mood disorders, school-related stressors, and prior suicide attempts. Findings underscore the need for targeted interventions in schools and equal clinical attention for NSSI, as similarities between groups suggest potential progression to suicide attempts. Educating clinicians and school communities is critical for prevention.
