ABSTRACTSuicide remains a leading cause of death among youth, and suicide ideation and behavior are relatively common in both normal and clinical populations. Clinicians working with young people must assess for the presence of suicidal ideation, suicidal behavior, and other risk factors, in order to determine the level of risk. This paper provides the clinician with a summary of risk factors for youth suicide, as well as providing standardized terminology to enhance assessment of suicidal ideation and behavior.

Introduction. The period of life known as adolescence generally refers to transition from childhood to adulthood. Adolescents' progress toward autonomy involves remaining connected with, as well as separated from parents. Young people and their parents usually have mixed feelings about adolescent autonomy and attachment. An estimated 50% of children born in the 80s have spent part of their developmental years in single-parent households. Divorce is almost always a stressful event in children's lives. Youthful suicide rate has increased dramatically and is the third leading cause of death among 15-19 year olds. Conduct disorder is one of the most frequently diagnosed conditions in adolescents. Suicidal adolescents and adolescents with conduct disorder are much more likely than their peers to have grown up in disrupted, disorganized homes with lack of attachment between parents and their children. Material and methods This prospective study was carried out during 2002, 2003, and 2004. The research included 60 adolescents treated at the Center for Child and Adolescent Psychiatry in Novi Sad, 30 with diagnosed conduct disorder and 30 with suicidal behavior. Results Along with other kinds of distress, suicidal adolescents have experienced an escalation of family problems a few months prior to attempted suicide. Discussion Divorce and life in single-parent households is almost always a stressful period in children's lives. Conduct disorder and suicidal behavior represent a desperate cry for help. Conclusion Most adolescents in both groups live in single-parent house?holds. These young people have frequently passed into adolescence with little reason to feel that they could rely on their parents for support, or on their home as a place of sanctuary. .

По данным ВОЗ Казахстан относится к странам с высоким показателем самоубийств и, несколько лет подряд входит в первую десятку стран по их количеству. В этом отношении наиболее выполнимым является изучение предикторов, дающих возможность прогнозировать склонность к суицидам, каким являются показатели агрессивности и враждебности. Впервые в Республике Казахстан проводилось психометрическое обследование (опросник Басса-Дарки, Тест «Руки») по выявлению агрессивных и враждебных реакций у лиц подросткового возраста - воспитанников областного детского дома №1 г. Алматы с помощью использования экспериментально- психологических методик. В результате проведенного исследования выявлены подростки, склонные к проявлению реакций агрессии и враждебности, представляющих потенциальную опасность в плане совершения суицидоопасных действий и тенденций, которым необходимо проведение своевременной психопрофилактической и психокоррекционной работы. According to WHO, Kazakhstan is one of the countries with a high suicide rate and, for several years in a row, is among the top ten countries in terms of their number. In this regard, the most feasible is the study of predictors that make it possible to predict suicidal tendencies, such as indicators of aggressiveness and hostility. For the first time in the Republic of Kazakhstan, a psychometric survey (the Bass-Darky questionnaire, the "Hands" Test) was conducted to identify aggressive and hostile reactions in adolescents-pupils of the Almaty regional orphanage No.1 through the use of experimental psychological techniques. As a result of the conducted research, we have identified young people who are prone to aggressive and hostile reactions that pose a potential danger in terms of committing suicidal actions and tendencies that need timely psychoprophylactic and psychocorrective work.
