TY - JOUR PY - 2014// TI - The associations of race/ethnicity and suicidal ideation among college students: a latent class analysis examining precipitating events and disclosure patterns JO - Suicide and life-threatening behavior A1 - De Luca, Susan A1 - Yan, Yueqi A1 - Lytle, Megan A1 - Brownson, Chris SP - 444 EP - 456 VL - 44 IS - 4 N2 - Precipitating events for suicidal ideation and how these experiences relate to disclosure in a diverse sample of college students were examined. Among non-Hispanic White students, relationship/academic problems were most associated with ideation. A romantic break-up increased the odds of getting help. Among racial/ethnic minority students, family/academic problems were most associated with ideation and students who reported multiple events were less likely to get help compared with those not reporting events. Future research should examine the reasons for interpersonal conflict among this high-risk group and their attitudes about help-seeking, and identify cultural norms associated with disclosure.
