Suicidality in Offspring of Men with Substance Use Disorder: Is There a Common Liability?
Cornelius, Jack; Kirisci, Levent; Tarter, Ralph E.
Journal of Child and Adolescent Substance Abuse, v10 n4 p101-09 2001
The results reported herein indicate that psychological dysregulation in childhood is a risk factor for substance use disorder (SUD) but not suicidality. Offspring of men with SUD do, however, report a higher rate of suicidal ideation and attempts compared to offspring of psychiatrically normal men. (Contains 28 references and 4 tables.) (GCP)
