Abstract

Purpose: Various intervention strategies are needed to reduce the suicide rate among late adolescents. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the factors that can help overcome suicidal tendencies in late adolescents from the perspective of case managers.

Methods: This qualitative study explored the reinforcing factors that can help overcome suicidal behaviors in late adolescents, by conducting focus group interviews with case managers from the local community. Interviews with 10 case managers were recorded and transcribed, and the data were analyzed using the content analysis method.

Results: The main theme of this study was ¡°a step in a new direction¡±. Three categories were derived: ¡°inner changes¡±, ¡°another possibility opened up by the interest of significant others¡±, and ¡°connecting with community resources to help overcome¡±. Each category had subcategories that influenced the intention and course of action of behaviors to overcome the suicide crises.

Conclusion: Our findings, from the exploration of the experiences of case managers, provide an in-depth understanding of the reinforcing factors for overcoming suicide among late adolescents. They provide useful preliminary data for the development of effective suicide prevention programs for the adolescents.
