Abstract

The purpose of this study was to verify the mediating effect of the acquired capability for suicide (AC) in the relationship between non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) and suicidal behavior among young adults. For this study, the Functional Assessment of Self-Mutilation (FASM), the Acquired Capability for Suicide Scale (ACSS) and the Suicidal Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R) were used as measurements. Among the total number of 572 samples collected, the data of 322 individuals with NSSI were analyzed. Two characteristics of NSSI (frequency and number of methods) were measured for the analysis. The results of the study are as follow: First, the NSSI frequency, number of methods, and the AC were significantly associated with suicidal behavior. Second, the AC partially mediated the relationship between the NSSI frequency and suicidal behavior. Third, the AC partially mediated the relationship between the number of methods used in NSSI and suicidal behavior. Based on these results, study limitations and implications are discussed.
