| Summary, etc | This thesis investigates the issue of suicidality among adolescents. It explores the needs and concerns of New Zealand adolescents from their perspective and looks at whether these needs are met by a prevention and intervention programme offered through Youthline. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with 4 professionals working at Youthline and 6 participatory members of a programme that offered personal development, self-awareness, and friendship building. Findings suggest the adolescent participants realised significant changes in their behaviour, attitude, and especially their self-esteem, a significant protection factor identified by the author. Statements of the professionals matched that of the adolescents and the author suggests that this has the potential to strengthen young people in New Zealand and therefore reduce risk factors for suicidality. The research does not specifically investigate family violence, and as such, this aspect is tenuous. However, it is briefly mentioned as an environmental risk factor. Recommendations for policy and future research, especially concerning the funding of social services, are discussed.--AUTHOR'S ABSTRACT |
