TY - JOUR PY - 2018// TI - Exposure to violence and suicide risk in colombian adolescents JO - Terapia psicologica A1 - Suárez, Y. A1 - Restrepo, D. A1 - Caballero, C. A1 - Palacio, J. SP - 101 EP - 111 VL - 36 IS - 2 N2 - The association between suicide risk and exposure to violence in the home, street, school, television in adolescents of Santa Marta (Colombia) was analyzed. A sample of 210 adolescents aged 12-19 years (M = 14.6 SD = 1.38) was evaluated. The subjects responded to the Plutchik Suicide Risk Scale and the Violence Exposure Scale. We found a bivariate association with exposure to violence in the home. In an adjusted logistic regression model the support of parents / siblings / friends (OR = 0.213 CI 95% = 0.70-0649) is a protective factor for suicidal risk, while female gender (OR = 5.397 95% CI = 2.541-11.460), exposure to violence in the home (OR = 2.344, 95% CI = 1.161-4.298) and difficulties in entering education (OR = 3.257, 95% CI = 1013-10.467) are risk factors. It is concluded that adolescent women, victims of domestic violence and with problems to access basic education are more likely to present suicidal risk. © 2018 by Sociedad Chilena de Psicología Clínica.
