RESUMO
Non-suicidal self-injury(NSSI)is a behavior that occurs most often in adolescents.Previous studies showed that this behavior has the addictive related characteristics.Interestingly,the addictive nature of NSSI behavior can be assessed using Ottawa selfinjury inventory(OSI),the higher addiction score indicates the more serious NSSI behavior.From the psychological mechanism,different models show that the addictive feature of NSSI behavior may be related to the behavioral reinforcement mechanism and the interaction mechanism of emotion,cognition,and behavior of susceptible individuals.From the neurobiological mechanisms,opioid and dopamine may mediate the addiction characteristics of NSSI,and the brain reward circuit originated in the midbrain system may play a key role.From the perspective of treatment,current psychotherapy may have advantages in alleviating NSSI behavior,while therapeutic drugs and non-invasive neural regulation of substance use disorders may improve NSSI behavior via alleviating behavioral addiction.In conclusion,NSSI may be an addictive disorder,which needs further verification in the future studies.
RESUMO
ObjectiveTo explore the related factors of troublemaking behaviors among patients with mental disorders induced by amphetamine-type stimulants （ATS）， and to provide references for the formulation of relevant intervention measures for ATS-induced mental disorders. MethodsA total of 105 patients who met the diagnostic criteria of International Classification of Diseases， tenth edition （ICD-10） for ATS-induced mental disorders were included， and classified into troublemaking group and non-troublemaking group. The general demographic data and clinical data of the selected individuals were collected， and all patients were assessed using Social Support Rating Scale （SSRS）. Then univariate analysis and multivariate Logistic regression model were used to screen the related factors of troublemaking behaviors. ResultsThe scores of SSRS， objective support dimension and social support utilization dimension were significantly lower in troublemaking group than those in non-troublemaking group， with statistical differences ［（24.10±6.59） vs. （28.94±5.59）， t=3.364， P=0.001； （5.50±1.96） vs. （8.20±2.13）， t=5.183， P<0.01； （4.60±2.26） vs. （6.28±1.90）， t=3.435， P=0.001］. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that male （OR=6.061， P=0.014） was a risk factor， while high social support level （OR=0.873， P=0.018） was the protective factor for troublemaking behaviors among patients with ATS-induced mental disorders. ConclusionPatients with ATS-induced mental disorders of the males and with low social support level are at high risk of troublemaking behaviors.
