Interaction of sexual violence perpetration and victimization on suicide attempts in Korean adolescents on additive and multiplicative scales: a population-based cross-sectional study.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the associations and interaction between sexual violence perpetration and victimization on suicide attempts using a large representative sample of adolescents from South Korea.

Methods

Based on data from 515,247 adolescents aged 12-18 years from the Korea Youth Risk Behavior Web-Based Survey (2006-2012), a nationally representative repeated cross-sectional survey, we obtained self-reports of suicide attempts over the past year and of lifetime sexual violence perpetration and victimization. Using complex survey weights, weighted logistic regression models were employed to estimate the odds ratios (ORs). The interaction analyses were conducted on both additive and multiplicative scales. All analyses were conducted separately for boys and girls.
