^*Baseline diagnostic and personality variables were assessed in individual Cox regression models; Pre-defined risk factors were assessed in a single group model.

^**NOTE: “Prior to Attempt” indicates that the hospitalization took place prior to any suicide attempt within the interval of baseline to 8 years.
