Objective:To investigate the addictive characteristics and related influencing factors of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) in adolescent patients with depressive disorder. Methods: A total of 152 adolescent patients with depressive disorder in psychiatric outpatients of our hospital were selected and divided into NSSI group and non-NSSI group. Hamilton Depression Rating Scales (HAMD), Adolescents Self-Harm Scale (ASH), Ottawa Self-Injury Questionnaire (OSI), Adolescent Self-Rating Life Events Checklist (ASLEC), Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS), Borderline Personality Feature Scale-Children (BPFS-C) and Family APGAR was used for analysis, and the data were analyzed by SPSS 22.0. Results: In the NSSI group, 55.29% of the patients’ NSSI behaviors had addictive characteristics, and The OSI addiction score was correlated with HAMD, NSSI severity, ASLEC, BPFS-C and Family APGAR score (P< 0.01). In addition, the total scores of HAMD, BPFS-C, ASLEC and TAS in the NSSI group were higher than those in the non-NSSI group, and the total scores of Family APGAR in the NSSI group were lower than those in the NSSI group (P< 0.05). Conclusion: NSSI behavior in adolescents with depressive disorder has certain addictive characteristics. Severe depression, severe NSSI, borderline personality traits, family dysfunction and adverse life events may be the risk factors for NSSI behavior addiction. Compared with patients without NSSI behavior, adolescents with NSSI behavior are more likely to have borderline personality traits, adverse life events, family dysfunction and alexithymia. |
