Abstract

Previous studies on the general public’s perception of self-harm have focused on “nonsuicidal self-injury” (NSSI). Research on “deliberate self-harm” (DSH) as a form of impulsive non-lethal suicide has rarely been examined. To address the paucity of literature available within the Asian context, the present study examined the Thai general public’s perception toward acts of DSH in the context of failed suicide attempts. The central question of this study is “how do members of the Thai general public perceive impulsive acts of DSH with suicidal intent?” One hundred twenty-six Thais completed the attribution model of public discrimination questionnaire as adopted from a study by Corrigan et al. (2003). The present study employed two vignettes and compared male and female responses to acts of DSH. Assessments were made in regards to the attribution of: 1) personal responsibility beliefs (PRB); 2) affective responses (e.g., pity, anger, and fear); and 3) coercionsegregation responses toward persons who committed acts of DSH. Independent sample t-test showed a significant difference in Thai men and women’s attribution of helping responses.

泰国对故意自残的看法:性别和公众耻辱感的作用
以往关于公众自我伤害认知的研究主要集中在“非自杀性自我伤害”(non - suicide self injury,简称NSSI)上。关于“故意自残”(DSH)作为一种冲动性非致命性自杀形式的研究很少被研究。为了解决亚洲背景下文献的缺乏,本研究调查了泰国公众对自杀未遂背景下DSH行为的看法。本研究的核心问题是“泰国公众如何看待有自杀意图的DSH冲动行为?”126名泰国人完成了Corrigan et al.(2003)采用的公众歧视问卷归因模型。本研究采用了两个小片段,比较了男性和女性对DSH行为的反应。在以下方面进行了评估:1)个人责任信念(PRB);2)情感反应(如怜悯、愤怒和恐惧);3)对实施自杀行为的人的强制隔离反应。独立样本t检验显示泰国男性和女性对帮助反应的归因有显著差异。
