Revisión documental de los factores de riesgo relacionados con la conducta suicida en adolescentes entre los 13 a 20 Años en Latinoamérica durante los últimos 10 Años

Abstract

The objective of this study was based on characterizing the research published in the last 10 years in relation to suicidal behavior in adolescents aged 13 to 20 years in Latin America, this being the central problem, one of the great public health problems, not only in Colombia if not in the rest of the countries of the world. At this stage in the life of young people, it is common to live difficult and painful situations with greater intensity, which due to the lack of previous experiences, lead to thoughts of death as a way out of adverse situations. The theoretical approach is cognitive behavioral.
