abstract="OBJECTIVES: The current study compared characteristics of suicidal behaviour and interpersonal violence in suicide attempters with and without a history of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI). <br><br>METHODS: A total of 100 suicide attempters were assessed with Karolinska Interpersonal Violence Scale (KIVS) and Karolinska Suicide History Interview concerning interpersonal violence and NSSI. <br><br>RESULTS: There was a high degree of comorbid NSSI in suicide attempters (44%). Suicide attempters with NSSI-history reported more interpersonal violence as adults and more severe suicidal behaviour compared to suicide attempters without NSSI. Comorbid NSSI was related to severity of suicidal behaviour in gender specific manner. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Comorbid NSSI in suicide attempters may increase suicide and violence risk.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
