Generation Z had the highest hazards for youth suicidal ideation, planning, self-harm, and suicide attempts, with the youngest age of onset. Adverse childhood experiences and lifetime mental health diagnoses were consistent risk factors across generations, but generational differences in their impact were evident. Sexual abuse before 19 was less strongly associated with earlier onset in Generation Z, while witnessing parental violence and exposure to suicide in others had stronger associations with younger onset in Generation Z. Mental disorders were linked to earlier onset, particularly in Baby Boomers.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Generational differences in the prevalence and age of onset of suicidal ideation and behaviours in Australia are evident, emphasising the need for a tailored, multi-sectorial suicide prevention strategy to address these evolving risks.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/00048674251393162","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,30]],"date-time":"2025-11-30T13:01:21Z","timestamp":1764507681000},"page":"269-281","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Generational effects in self-reported age of onset for youth suicidal ideation, self-harm and attempted suicide: A retrospective analysis using data from the Australian National Study of Mental Health and Wellbeing, 2020\u20132022"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"60","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1489-4573","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Katrina","family":"Witt","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shu Mei","family":"Teo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Myriam","family":"Ziou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gowri","family":"Rajaram","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David G","family":"Baker","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Vivienne","family":"Browne","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lianne","family":"Schmaal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3789-6168","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Patrick D","family":"McGorry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0987-2759","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Caroline X","family":"Gao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Orygen, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Youth Mental Health, The University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC, Australia"},{"name":"Department of Epidemiology and Preventative Medicine, School of Public Health and Preventative Medicine, Monash University, Melbourne, VIC, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,11,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_2_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/sltb.12330"},{"key":"e_1_3_2_3_1","unstructured":"Australian Bureau of Statistics (2021) 2021 Census of population and housing Australia \u2013 General community profile.
