چکیده :

Empirical work has suggested relationships among suiciderelated

outcomes and several constructs related to affect

dysregulation, notably anxiety sensitivity (AS) and distress

tolerance (DT). However, important questions remain,

including the relative contributions of these affect regulation

variables as well as the direct contribution of DT on suicidal

ideation and prior attempts.The current study sought to better

elucidate the nature of these relationships by examining AS,

DT, and suicidal ideation and attempt in a clinical sample

(). Consistent with priorwork and prediction, findings

revealed a significant relationship between the AS cognitive

concerns subfactor and suicidal ideation and suicide attempt

history after accounting for the effects of DT, gender, and

depressive symptoms. In addition, depressive symptoms

significantly moderated the relationship between the AS

cognitive concerns subfactor and suicidal ideation. After

accounting for the influence of AS, analyses revealed that DT

approached significance in predicting suicidal ideation, but

did not significantly predict suicide attempt history. These

results suggest that elevated AS cognitive concerns are

particularly relevant to suicide in the context of depressive

symptoms. Clinicians may benefit from implementing AS

reduction strategies with individuals who endorse elevated

suicide risk as well as elevated AS cognitive concerns.
