Description

Fifteen adolescent French girls with a recent history of self-mutilation and 18 adolescent girls without such a history participated in a study of the relationship between alexithymia, depression, and self-mutilation. Results of correlational analyses showed that depression and alexithymia-particularly its "difficulty in identifying feelings and differentiating them from bodily sensations" factor- were significantly related to self-mutilation. Sequential logistic regression analysis showed that depression and the alexithymia factor as a set reliably distinguished between those who self-mutilated and those who did not. Of the two independent variables, depression was identified as the better predictor of self-mutilating behavior. Although the "difficulty in identifying feelings and differentiating them from bodily sensations" factor of alxithymia did have an effect independent of depression, much of the relationship between this factor and self-mutilation appeared to be the result of mediation by depression. **********
