Abstract
Nonsuicidal self-injury (NSSI), eating disorder behavior (EDBs), and suicide are comorbid, yet the literature classifies intentions of self-injury for each behavior as distinct. Results from the adolescent sample indicated overlap between NSSI and EDBs in short and long-term self-injury intentions with suicide cognitions present across all behaviors.
