Objectives: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship among adult Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder(ADHD) symptoms, depressive symptoms, anxiety symptoms and suicide idea in Korean soldiers.
Methods: We investigated past and present symptoms of ADHD(Korean-Wender Utah rating scale and Korean adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder scale), depression(Beck’s Depression Inventory), anxiety(Beck’s Anxiety Inventory) and suicide idea(Beck Suicide Ideation Scale) in 92 Korean soldiers who had been experienced maladjustment and had visited in the medical unit of Army. Pearson correlation analysis, path analysis and structured equation model were used to find the relationship among these factors using SPSS 18.0 and AMOS 19.0 program.
Results: There were significant relationships among past and present symptoms of ADHD and depression, anxiety and suicide idea(p＜0.01). The regression analysis revealed that depression affected suicide idea(β=0.64, p＜0.01). The path analysis showed that the impact of past and present symptoms of ADHD affected on suicide idea via depression( p＜0.05, CFI=0.92, TLI=0.62, IFI=0.92, NFI=0.91).
Conclusion: The symptoms of ADHD might make a fundamental role in development of suicide ideation via emotion like depression in Korean soldiers.
