abstract="With its recent inclusion in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, nonsuicidal self-injury disorder (NSSID) has received limited research attention, especially in  samples of military veterans. The present study sought to identify diagnostic  predictors of NSSID within a veteran sample. Study participants included 124  veterans with at least one psychiatric diagnosis. Chi-square tests and t-tests  evaluated bivariate associations between NSSID and twenty diagnostic correlates. Logistic regression models identified psychiatric disorders that were unique  correlates of NSSID among veterans. Veterans with lifetime NSSID (n = 59) met  criteria for a greater number of lifetime disorders than veterans with other  psychiatric disorders. Bivariate associations were noted between NSSID and  borderline personality disorder, depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder,  generalized anxiety disorder, and cannabis use disorder. In the logistic regression  model, only borderline personality disorder (AOR = 7.67) and obsessive-compulsive  disorder (AOR = 3.23) continued to be associated with NSSID. The present study  represents the first examination of the association between NSSID and psychiatric  disorders among veterans. The findings shed light on psychiatric disorders  associated with lifetime NSSID in veterans, with special consideration toward  obsessive-compulsive disorder as a risk factor for NSSID.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
