Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the correlation between psychological pain, childhood mental trauma, alexithymia, impulsivity and psychological resilience and suicide attempts in individuals with substance use disorder (SUD) who applied to the Probation Outpatient Clinic.
Method: The study was conducted with 120 individuals who applied to the probation outpatient clinic and healthy controls. Socio-Demographic Data Form, Childhood Psychological Trauma Scale (CTQ-28), Toronto Alexithymia Scale (TAS), Psychological Pain Scale (PP), Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS), Psychological Resilience Scale (PRS) were applied to all participants.
Results: PP, TAS, BIS, CTQ-28 scale scores of patients with suicide attempt history were higher. In the forward stepwise model designed to predict the risk of suicide attempt, PRS, TAS-A, PRS-social competence and BIS-total scores contributed significantly to the model. It was determined that the four significant variables explained 65,6% of the variance in suicide risk.
Conclusion: High psychological pain, alexithymia, impulsivity and childhood trauma and low psychological resilience in individuals with substance use disorder could be a predictor of suicide risk.

Denetimli Serbestlik Polikliniğine Başvuran Madde Kullanım Bozukluğu Tanılı Bireylerde İntihar Davranışı

Öz

Amaç: Bu çalışmada Denetimli Serbestlik (DS) Polikliniğine başvuran Madde Kullanım Bozukluğu (MKB) tanılı bireylerde psikolojik acı, çocukluk çağı ruhsal travmaları, aleksitimi, dürtüsellik ve psikolojik dayanıklılığın intihar girişimi ile ilişkisinin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Yöntem: Çalışma DS Polikliniğine başvuran 120 kişi ve sağlıklı kontrol ile yapılmıştır. Tüm katılımcılara; Sosyo-Demografik Veri Formu, Çocukluk Çağı Ruhsal Travma Ölçeği (CTQ-28), Toronto Aleksitimi Ölçeği (TAÖ), Psikolojik Acı Ölçeği (PAÖ), Barratt Dürtüsellik ölçeği (BDÖ), Psikolojik Dayanıklılık ölçeği (PDÖ) uygulanmıştır.
Bulgular: İntihar girişimi olan hastaların PAÖ, TAÖ, BDÖ, CTQ-28 ölçek puanlarının daha yüksek olduğu tespit edilmiştir. İntihar girişimi riskini tahmin etmek için kurulan modelde (forward stepwise) PAÖ, TAÖ-A, PDÖ-sosyal yeterlilik ve BDÖ-toplam değişkenlerinin modele anlamlı katkı yaptığı bulunmuştur. Anlamlı olan dört değişkenin intihar riskindeki değişimin % 65,6’sını açıkladığı tespit edilmiştir.
Sonuç: MKB’lerde psikolojik acı, aleksitimi, dürtüsellik ve çocukluk çağı travmalarının yüksek, psikolojik dayanıklılığın daha düşük olmasının intihar riskini değerlendirmede öngörürücü etkenlerdir.
