RESUMEN

INTRODUCCIÓN:

Los vínculos de apego se consideran un elemento importante en la salud mental; sin embargo, se ha estudiado poco la relación entre las dimensiones apego y el riesgo suicida.

OBJETIVO:

Establecer la asociación entre la confianza, comunicación y alienación y el riesgo suicida en adolescentes escolari zados de Colombia. SUJETOS Y

MÉTODO:

Estudio observacional de corte transversal con componente analítico, en una muestra aleatorizada de 399 adolescentes escolarizados (n = 1.901), según prevalencia de alto riesgo de suicidio del 30%, pertenecientes a las instituciones educativas oficiales de Santa Marta (Colombia), comuna con mayor índice de necesidades básicas insatisfechas. Los participantes completaron el inventario de apego de Armsden & Greenberg y la escala de riesgo suicida de Plutchik, ambas validadas localmente. Se calcularon pruebas de confiabilidad y asociación.

RESULTADOS:

Los adolescentes tenían entre 13 y 19 años (M = 15,7; DE = 1,1), el 57,8% mujeres. El 59,9% presentó baja confianza con la madre, 57,2% baja comunicación con la madre, 54,9% baja alienación con la madre, 46,3%, baja confianza con padre, 49% baja comunicación con el padre, 48,7% baja alienación con el padre y el 28,6% alto riesgo suicida. Se encontró asociación (ajustada) entre el alto riesgo de suicidio y la confianza con la madre (OR = 2,00; IC95% 1,12-3,57), comunicación con madre (OR = 3,80; IC95% 2,13-6,75), confianza con padre (OR = 2,39 IC95%; 1,41-4,03) y comunicación con el padre (OR = 2,01; IC95% 1,19-3,37).

CONCLUSIÓN:

La baja confianza y baja comunicación con madre y padre son factores de riesgo para el alto riesgo suicida en adolescentes escolarizados de una ciudad colombiana. Es necesario ampliar la investigación de esta asociación en otras poblaciones, así como considerar otros factores mediadores.
ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION:

Attachment is considered an important element in mental health, however, the relationship between attachment dimensions and suicidal risk has been little studied.

OBJECTIVE:

To establish the associa tion between trust, communication, and alienation and suicide risk in Colombian school adolescents. SUBJECTS AND

METHOD:

A cross-sectional observational study with an analytical component was de signed in a randomized sample of 399 school adolescents (n = 1,901), according to a 30% prevalence of high suicide risk, members of the official educational institutions of Santa Marta (Colombia), the commune with the highest index of unsatisfied basic needs. Participants completed the Armsden & Greenberg attachment inventory and the Plutchik suicide risk scale, both validated locally. Reliability and association tests were calculated.

RESULTS:

Adolescents were 339 adolescents between 13 and 19 years of age (M = 15.7, SD = 1.1), 57.8% were women. 59.9% of adolescents showed low trust in the mother, 57.2% low communication with the mother, 54.9% low alienation with the mother, 46.3%, low trust in the father, 49% low communication with the father, 48.7% low alienation with the father, and 28.6% high suicide risk. There was an association (adjusted) between high suicide risk and trust in the mother (OR = 2.00, 95%CI 1.12-3.57), communication with the mother (OR = 3.80, 95%CI 2.13-6.75), trust in the father (OR = 2.39, 95%CI 1.41-4.03), and communication with the father (OR = 2.01, 95%CI 1.19-3.37).

CONCLUSIONS:

Low trust and low communication with mother and father are risk factors for high suicide risk in Colombian school adolescents. Further research on this association in other populations is needed, as well as to consider other mediating factors.
