Abstract: (960 Views)
Introduction: Considering the increasing risk of suicide with age, follow-up, prevention, and treatment of suicide in childhood and adolescence are crucial. This review aims to investigate the risk and protective factors of suicide, as well as psychological interventions for suicide prevention among Iranian adolescents.
Method: The findings of the current study were obtained by reviewing and comparing peer-reviewed domestic and international articles. Keywords such as “suicide”, “adolescent”, “student”, and “Iran” in both Persian and English, were used to search databases like Ensani, SID, Magiran, Noormags, Google Scholar, Scopus, PubMed, and ScienceDirect. After removing duplicated and irrelevant studies, 48 articles meeting the inclusion criteria were analyzed.
Findings: The studies were categorized into two main areas: (1) protective and risk factors related to suicide, and (2) psychological interventions for suicide prevention. The underlying factors of suicide were categorized into individual and background factors. A model was developed to illustrate how developmental, psychological, environmental, family and socio-cultural factors interact to influence suicidal thoughts and behaviors among adolescents.
Discussion: The findings highlight the effectiveness of psychological interventions in reducing suicide rates. Developing and implementing educational programs to decrease the prevalence of suicidal thoughts and behaviors can promote public health, especially among children and adolescents, particularly those in elementary school.
