A1 - Shevchenko, Ju S. A1 - Danilova, L. Ju A1 - Grachev, V. V. SP - 10 EP - 15 VL - 117 IS - 7 N2 - AIM: To perform a phenomenological/clinical/psychopathological analysis of non-suicidal self-injury behavior (NSSI) in adolescents. MATERIAL AND METHODS: The authors studied 155 adolescents, 140 girls and 15 boys, aged 12-17 years, including 111 with self-cutting, 5 with self-burning, 4 with self-beating. Other cases included combined, multiple and other variants of NSSI. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: NSSI develop more often in female teenagers. NSSI may be a component of suicidal behavior or represent a relatively independent behavioral model existing out of a suicidal context. NSSI behavior can be considered as psychological defense as well as a coping strategy in response to nonspecific stress. KEYWORDS: adolescents; gender differences; non-suicidal self-injury; stressful states
