Abstract

We examined the frequency and predictors of suicide attempts among gender minority individuals (N = 153) who were recruited at a transgender conference. Eighteen percent of the participants reported a past suicide attempt, with trans men reporting the highest rate of suicide attempts (41%), followed by trans women (20%). Factors associated with having a past suicide attempt included female sex assigned at birth, psychiatric hospitalisations, and having experienced transgender-related violence. Implications of these data are considered in the context of intervention development for this at-risk group.
