This exploratory study examined Latino immigrant caregivers' knowledge, engagement, and perceived self-efficacy about Latino adolescent suicide. Participants (N = 133) were first-generation Latino caregivers living in the United States. A multiple regression examined participants' suicide literacy, suicide prevention reinforcement, family and cultural factors, and sociodemographic associations with suicide-related prevention communication self-efficacy (SPCS). Only 23% of participants were familiar with suicide prevention programming. Multiple regression results revealed that suicide prevention reinforcement, familism, and income were significantly associated with the Latino caregiver's SPCS. The findings provide a baseline of Latino immigrant caregivers' SPCS, which can be used to inform providers working with Latino families struggling with suicidality or who have a Latino adolescent at risk for suicide and inform the development of culturally-tailored suicide prevention programming. Highlights: This novel study sought to explore the correlations of suicide prevention communication self-efficacy among Latino immigrant caregivers. Latino immigrant caregivers reported moderately high levels of self-efficacy regarding suicide prevention. Latino immigrant caregiver participants reported low levels of suicide literacy related to suicide warning signs and risk factors. Majority of participants reported a willingness to learn more about preventing adolescent suicide. Familism and hearing about suicide prevention programs were associated with suicide prevention communication self-efficacy. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
