Are there gender and age differences in the effect of coping strategies on suicidal ideation among adolescents? The mediating role of emotional intelligence.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Studies suggest that coping strategies (CS) and emotional intelligence (EI) can reduce the impact of suicidal ideation (SI) and help prevent adolescent suicide. However, it remains unclear whether EI mediates the relationship between CS and SI, and whether these effects are consistent across gender and age. The objective of this research was to analyze the direct and indirect effects of CS and EI on SI, as well as their invariance across gender and age. An observational, cross-sectional, analytic study was conducted, involving 598 adolescents (M=14.17, SD=2.01). Participants completed the Inventory of Suicide Orientation (ISO)-30, the Trait Meta-Mood Scale (TMMS), and the Coping Strategies Inventory (CSI). Path analysis revealed that CS explained 48% of the variance in EI. CS of emotional expression, social support, and cognitive restructuring showed significant direct effects (p<0.01). Together, CS and EI explained 39% of the variance in SI. The indirect effects of CS on SI through EI were significant (p<.01) for social support, cognitive restructuring, and problem-solving strategies. EI and adaptive CS are relevant in reducing SI. These results have significant implications for the design of clinical and educational interventions aimed at improving emotional regulation and adaptive coping to reduce suicide risk in adolescents.
