LUNA-CONTRERAS, Marisol y DAVILA-CERVANTES, Claudio Alberto. Effects of depression and self-esteem on suicide ideation in high school adolescent students in Mexico City. Pap. poblac [online]. 2020, vol.26, n.106, pp.75-103. Epub 03-Nov-2021. ISSN 2448-7147. https://doi.org/10.22185/24487147.2020.106.31.
Suicide behavior has increased in Mexican adolescents and young adults. The objective was to analyze the effect of self-esteem and depression on suicide ideation in Mexico City’s junior high and high school teenager students in 2012. We analyzed Mexico City’s Student Drug Consumption Survey of 2012 using a confirmatory factor analysis and a structural equation model. Female students had a higher prevalence of suicide ideation, depression and low self-esteem. Self-esteem and depression had a direct effect on suicide ideation. Self-esteem had a negative effect on suicide ideation when it is mediated by depression. Suicide ideation studies help to generate evidence for the planning, design and evaluation of strategies, policies and programs aimed at suicide prevention.
