Abstract

Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is very common among adolescents all over the world, and the incidence is increasing year by year. It has become one of the major public health problems affecting the physical and mental health of adolescents, and has attracted attention of the majority of experts and scholars at home and abroad. However, the mechanism of NSSI is not clear, the current research is in the preliminary stage, and the understanding of NSSI is not uniform in the world. According to current studies, the risk factors of NSSI mainly include individual factors, environmental factors and neurobiological factors. Family, as the most important external environment during adolescents' growth, plays a vital role in their physical and mental development. A good family environment can prevent NSSI and other risk behaviors of adolescents to some extent, and may become an important approach for early intervention in the future. This paper intends to review the relevant literature at home and abroad in recent years, so as to provide ideas for further research on the influence of family factors on adolescents' NSSI behavior, and to provide reference for clinical intervention and treatment.
