Résumé |
Introduction |
Some studies show that more expressed spirituality and some dimensions of personality have protective role from suicidality.
Aim |
The aim of our study is to examine the influence of the spiritual quality of life (QoL) and dimensions of personality on course of suicidality in patients with depression.
Methods |
Ninety-nine patients were assessed with self-report measures of suicidality (BHS), personality (TCI), spirituality (WHOQOL-SRPB) during a yearlong follow-up.
Results |
Spirituality was inversely linked with suicidality at baseline and during follow-up and more expressed spirituality influenced faster recovery from suicidality. Dimensions of temperament harm avoidance and self-directedeness show as significant predictors of recovery from suicidality.
Conclusion |
In our sample, spirituality, harm avoidance and self directedeness are significant predictors of recovery from suicidality. This finding is stimulus for further researching of protective factors from suicidality.
