Description

Margarita Martinez-Fierro and co-authors study suicidal behavior among nursing students in Mexico in a 2025 paper. Nursing students face early ward exposure, heavy study pressure, and stigma, all of which can erode mental health. The team set out to map the risk and protective factors at play.

Four hundred thirty-three students completed validated scales covering distress, impulsivity, pleasure loss, mental health, and social support. About fifteen percent showed clinically significant suicidal risk. Risk ran higher in women and in students living away from home. Impulsivity, attention-deficit symptoms, and above all hopelessness tied strongly to risk, and hazardous drinking added further risk. The analysis integrates these factors into one network picture for prevention planning.
