Abstract
Suicide is a major public health issue in China, and suicidal ideation is an important step in the suicidal process. The purpose of this study was to understand the prevalence and correlates of suicidal ideation among rural immigrant daughters-in-law with multi-role of female, farmer and immigrant in China. A total of 939 participants including 474 local daughters-in-law and 465 immigrant daughters-in-law were surveyed using the self-rating questionnaire. Demographic characteristics, depression, anxiety, impulsivity and suicidal ideation were assessed. Results indicated that the lifetime prevalence of suicidal ideation among rural immigrant daughters-in-law was 9.68%. Physical disability, domestic violence and negative events demonstrated statistical significance by suicidal ideation (p < .05), and participants with suicidal ideation had higher scores of depression, anxiety and impulsiveness in the univariate analysis. Multivariate logistic regression showed that physical disability (OR = 7.43, 95%CI: 2.84–19.46), domestic violence (OR = 2.65, 95%CI: 1.02–6.88), depression (OR = 1.07, 95%CI: 1.01–1.12), impulsiveness (OR = 1.04, 95%CI: 1.01–1.08) and motor impulsiveness (OR = 1.07, 95%CI: 1.01–1.14) were significantly associated with suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation is an issue that can’t be ignored among rural immigrant daughters-in-law. And the findings should be considered for the intervention of the suicide among the rural immigrant daughters-in-law. © 2015 Taylor & Francis.
