N2  - To examine the association between age at incarceration and lifetime suicide attempt (SA), and whether it differs by gender. Lifetime prevalence of SA was compared between respondents with no incarceration, juvenile, and adult incarceration who completed the 2012-2013 National Survey of Alcohol and Related Conditions-III (N = 36,107). We compared the odds of SA, adjusting for sociodemographic characteristics, psychiatric disorders, and childhood adverse experiences, and stratified the results by gender. Adjusted odds ratio (AOR) of SA relative to no incarceration history was 1.66 (95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.32-2.07) for adult incarceration and 2.00 (95% CI 1.49-2.70) for juvenile incarceration. AOR of SA relative to no incarceration history was 2.14 (95% CI 1.56-2.93) for adult and 2.15 (95% CI 1.38-3.35) for juvenile incarceration in women; it was 1.73 (95% CI 1.14-2.60) in juvenile incarceration relative to no incarceration history in men. A history of incarceration may increase SA, particularly among juvenile and women offenders.<p />  <p>Language: en</p>
