SCREENING HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS AT RISK OF SUICIDE ATTEMPTS IN HO CHI MINH CITY
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article mentions the screening of high school students at risk of suicide attempts in the Ho Chi Minh City area. Specifically, a general assessment of emotions and behaviors and an assessment of the risk of suicide attempts in students. The results showed that most groups expressed feelings and behaviors at a rare level. Although the manifestations of suicide attempts were rated low, which can be interpreted as no abnormalities. An in-depth analysis of the study found eight cases with a high risk of suicide attempts, and urgent intervention was required. The analysis showed a link between suicidal behavior and depression, withdrawal, and body disorders, which is a premise for further studies in proposing solutions to prevent and intervene in suicide attempt risk in high school students.
