The roles of negative mood, impulsivity, and executive dysfunction in non-suicidal self-injury behaviors among Chinese middle school students
The influencing factors of NSSI behaviors exhibit notable gender differences. Tailored interventions should prioritize negative mood and impulsivity in girls, while addressing executive dysfunction in boys. Additionally, girls with high impulsivity and NSSI thoughts warrant closer monitoring, as they may be at a greater risk of engaging in NSSI behaviors.
