Resumen

GARCIA DE ALBA GARCIA, JAVIER EDUARDO et al. Cultural Consensus Regarding Suicide Attempts in Adolescents. Rev. colomb. psicol. [online]. 2011, vol.20, n.2, pp.167-179. ISSN 0121-5469.

The objective of this study was to identify the semantic structure of the cultural domain, as well as the average knowledge and degree of cultural consensus among adolescents regarding suicide attempts. It was a qualitative study, using the free-listing technique, with a non-random sample made up of 27 adolescents between the ages of 13 and 18. The results showed a single semantic model. In such structure, family problems were identified as an important cause of suicide attempts, while depression and sadness were identified as signs and symptoms prior to the attempt, rather than as causes. Information talks and conversations about problems were suggested as prevention strategies. This model makes it possible to propose prevention strategies that prioritize the family nucleus.

Palabras clave : suicide attempt; cultural consensus; beliefs about suicide; adolescence.
