Abstract
|
|
|
|
Nonsuicidal Self-Injury(NSSI) is defined as a direct, intentional, socially unacceptable injury to one’s own body without suicidal intent. It is a major clinical and public health problem among adolescents around the world. Further, it is highly likely to be comorbid with various psychiatric disorders and is a high risk factor for suicide. In addition, NSSI may persist chronically in a number of adolescents. Therefore, appropriate and early intervention for adolescent NSSI is necessary, as adolescence is considered to be a key period for prevention and intervention. In this review, the overall characteristics and treatments of adolescent NSSI were investigated. However, there is still a lack of research on the risk factors and treatment for NSSI in adolescence. It is expected that if additional research is conducted based on previous studies, intervention and treatment, both of which are highly effective and early, will be provided to adolescents.
