Adaptacijos sutrikimo, įveikos strategijų ir suicidiškumo sąsajos /

Adjustment disorder is among the most often diagnosed mental health disorders. Adjustment disorder is associated with impaired social, occupational and everyday functioning. There are evidence suggesting that people with adjustment disorder have a high risk of suicide. However, adjustment disorder studies of clinical samples are scarce, therefore there is a lack of knowledge about its prevalence and risk factors. The aim of this study was to estimate the peculiarity of stressful experiences, adjustment difficulties, coping strategies, suicidiality and their associations. This study used a demographic questionnaire; Adjustment Disorder – New Module 20 Questionnaire (ADNM-20); Brief COPE Iventory (Brief COPE); The Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R). In total 60 patients (37 female and 23 male) from Crisis Intervention Centre participated in this study. Age of participants ranged from 18 to 66 years old (M = 40.25; SD = 14.26). Results showed that all patients experienced at least one stressor over the last year and 80.0% of patients were identified as having a high risk of adjustment disorder. The prevalence of suicide risk in the sample was 51.1% . There was a statistically significant relationship between adjustment difficulties, suicidiality and more frequent use of behavioral disengagement and self-blame coping strategies. The tendency of the relationship between adjustment difficulties and suicide risk was discovered.
