Abstract

Background: In the two decades from 1995 to 2018, approximately 48 farmers committed suicide every day, accounting for over 0.4 million deaths. Despite farmer's mental health being a priority, studies on farmers' mental health in general and depressive disorders in particular are limited. Aim: This study was conducted to find out the prevalence and factors associated with depressive disorders among farmers in Andhra Pradesh. Materials and Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional survey among a random sample of 360 farmers. Depressive disorders were measured using the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ)-9. Mild-to-moderate depressive disorders were the outcome variable. Factors associated with depressive disorders were identified using binary logistic regression. Results: The overall prevalence of depressive disorders was 22.2% (95% CI = 18.0%-26.9%). Female farmers (AOR = 4.16; 95% CI = 1.19-14.57), farmers aged ≥57 years (AOR = 4.90; 95% CI = 1.44-16.63), and single farmers (AOR = 4.96; 95% CI = 2.08-11.80) have greater odds of having depressive disorders. Conclusion: Efforts are required to address depressive disorders among farmers focusing on females, older farmers, and households reporting hospitalization. Since depressive disorders are closely associated with suicide attempts, these efforts are essential to avoid suicides resulting from depressive disorders. Keywords: Depression, epidemiology, farmers, occupational/industrial psychology, Author(s): Sparjan Raj Ubbla [1]; Prakash Babu Kodali (corresponding author) [1]; Kavumpurathu Raman Thankappan [1,2] INTRODUCTION Agriculture and allied sectors account for 18.8% of India's gross national product and employ [...]

Abstract

Suicide was the 10th leading cause of death in the United States in 2017 and was responsible for over 47,000 American deaths that year (Drapeau & Mcintosh, 2018). Furthermore, suicide [...], Suicide is a leading cause of death in the United States. Individuals with disabilities are more likely to experience suicidal thoughts, behaviors, and deaths by suicide, therefore, it is imperative that vocational rehabilitation (VR) support staff be knowledgeable and skilled at interacting with people in crisis. This survey explores the suicide-related knowledge, comfort, and competency in a multistate sample of 93 VR support staff. Almost 90% of the sample reported having worked with suicidal clients, with over a third reporting doing so more than once per year. However, less than a third of participants reported having received training on suicide. Participants were generally knowledgeable about suicide and willing to ask about suicide and work with suicidal clients but rated themselves low in both overall suicide assessment and crisis intervention competency and in specific skills. Implications for research and practice are discussed.

Abstract

The factor structure of the Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (SOQ) was investigated in 2 studies. In the first study, the SOQ was administered to 568 participants to investigate the relative strength of 3 competing latent structure models previously identified in the literature. Confirmatory factor analyses provided no support for any of the prior models. An exploratory factor analysis of these data resulted in a weak 2-factor structure accounting for only 15.33% of the common variance. In the second study, this 2-factor structure was evaluated using SOQ data from 288 college students. Confirmatory factor analysis results failed to support the 2-factor model. Based on these results, the authors recommend that future research efforts should focus on developing a more contemporary and psychometrically sound measure of attitudes toward suicide.

Abstract

This research investigates the knowledge and myths regarding suicide among students in Israel, and examines whether they are affected by ethnic origin, gender, and religiosity. A random sample of 450 undergraduate students from two colleges was asked to fill out the Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (SOQ). Knowledge was measured by five SOQ items ([alpha] = 0.57) and myths of suicide by 20 SOQ items ([alpha] = 0.67)._The level of Israeli students' knowledge about suicide is generally good ([bar.X] = 3.21; SD = 0.58). There are significant differences, however, between the Jewish (n = 266) and Arab (n = 154) students in knowledge about basic facts of suicide in Israel [([[bar.X].sub.Arabs] = 3.04; [[bar.X].sub.Jews] = 3.32; t ([sub.419, 0.95]) = 4.63, p < .001)]. Although both groups share the same educational milieu, the Arab students tend more to believe that suicide rates are higher in Israel, and even more so among people of Asian African origin and minorities. They also perceive suicide by shooting to be the most popular suicide method. There are also significant differences between those groups with respect to their belief in suicide myths [([[bar.X].sub.Arabs] = 2.91; SD = 0.40; [[bar.X].sub.Jews] = 3.17, SD = 0.41 ; t ([sub.419, 0.95]) = 6.31, p < 0.01)]. Arabs tend more to relate suicide to lower religious affiliation, mental illness and chronic tendency, and to believe that the victim's relatives know nothing about the coming suicide. No significant differences were found based on religiosity or gender. Discussion focuses on the influence of the different cultural characteristics of lifestyle and the social control systems among Jews and Arabs in Israel on perceptions toward suicide.
