Latent patterns of rumination and hopelessness on self-harm behaviors in adolescence
Our study provides novel insights that the interaction between rumination and hopelessness generates distinct cognitive phenotypes, which show different associations with SA and NSSI. These findings address a key theoretical gap in self-harm mechanisms and suggest the need to reshape prevention paradigms by enabling phenotype-specific interventions targeting cognitive constrictions for at-risk youth.
