Abstract

The problem of identifying suicide risk in adolescents, especially among high-risk subgroups, requires a multifactor analysis not only of etiological factors, but also individual psychological characteristics of suicides, which could help significantly in predicting risk. The purpose of this work was to study the protective-coping strategies of adolescents prone to suicidal behavior and to analyze the effect of the level of viability on the dominance of certain protections and copings. It has been revealed that adolescents with high suicide risk are more likely to use the defense mechanisms “regression”, “projection”, and “substitution”, as well as coping “escape-avoidance”. A low level of viability increases the frequency of manifestation of coping “distancing”. The use of avoidance strategies for adolescents with high suicide risk can be seen as an attempt to improve emotional regulation.
