• The relationship between non-suicidal self-injury and suicidality (2016, background): “A review by Jacobson and Gould (2007) noted that whether there are gender differences in the prevalence of NSSI is inconclusive, with three studies having found NSSI to be more common in women than men, and three studies finding no difference.”
• Nonsuicidal Self-Injury, Pain, and Self-Criticism (2014, positive): “Although the possibility that younger people are more able to recall having engaged in NSSI cannot be ruled out, the higher prevalence rates in younger people may indicate that NSSI is becoming increasingly common ( Jacobson & Gould, 2007; Nock, 2010).”
• Comparison of non-suicidal self-injurious behavior and suicide attempts in patients admitted to a psychiatric crisis unit (2010, background): “Researchers have noted a high co-occurrence between NSSI and suicide attempts (Jacobson & Gould, 2007) leading some to question the need to differentiate the behaviors.”
• Assessing the functions of non-suicidal self-injury: Psychometric properties of the Inventory of Statements About Self-injury (ISAS) (2008, background): “Because rates of NSSI have increased in recent years (Jacobson and Gould 2007; Ross and Heath, 2002; Whitlock, Eckenrode, and Silverman, 2006), there is new urgency to better understand and treat the behavior.”
• Is Nonsuicidal Self-Injury Associated With Parenting and Family Factors? (2014, background): “The estimated lifetime prevalence rates for NSSI in adolescents range from 13% to 24% (Jacobson & Gould, 2007; Muehlenkamp, Williams, Gutierrez, & Claes, 2009).”
• Examining the link between nonsuicidal self-injury and suicidal behavior: a review of the literature and an integrated model. (2012, methodology): “…some evidence to suggest that Caucasians may be at increased risk for NSSI as compared to other ethnicities (Muehlenkamp&Gutierrez, 2004, 2007; see Jacobson & Gould, 2007 for a review); however, other researchers have reported no differences in NSSI prevalence among varying ethnicities (Brausch &…”
• Why Do People Hurt Themselves? (2009, background): “Approximately 1%-4% of adults and 13%-23% of adolescents report a lifetime history of NSSI (Jacobson & Gould, 2007).”
