    <abstract xml:lang="es">Resumen
Introducci&oacute;n. La conducta suicida es un problema de salud p&uacute;blica. Se sugiere que la personalidad impulsiva o predeterminada participa en los actos de agresividad como el suicidio.
Objetivo. En este estudio se identificaron diferencias sociodemogr&aacute;ficas, de intento de suicidio y la presencia de depresi&oacute;n entre individuos con caracter&iacute;stica de agresividad impulsiva o predeterminada.
M&eacute;todos. Se realiz&oacute; un estudio de tipo transversal que incluy&oacute; a 200 residentes de Villahermosa, Tab, M&eacute;xico, usuarios de los servicios de salud en ese Estado. La agresividad predeterminada o impulsiva se caracteriz&oacute; usando la Escala de Agresi&oacute;n Impulsiva/Predeterminada (IPAS). Las caracter&iacute;sticas sociodemogr&aacute;ficas, de intento de suicidio y de depresi&oacute;n fueron divididas de acuerdo al tipo de agresividad. Subsecuentemente fueron comparadas las caracter&iacute;sticas entre los dos grupos.
Resultados. Los resultados psicol&oacute;gicos revelaron que la agresividad impulsiva est&aacute; presente en 62.71 % de la poblaci&oacute;n. Estar desempleado y ser mujer fueron asociadas con la agresividad predeterminada. De igual forma, la mayor proporci&oacute;n de personas con depresi&oacute;n se observ&oacute; en el grupo de personas predeterminadas (&chi;2 = 18.29, gl = 1, p = 0.001). La proporci&oacute;n de personas con por lo menos un intento de suicidio a lo largo de la vida es similar en las impulsivas y las predeterminadas (6.06% y 6.30%, respectivamente).
Discusi&oacute;n y conclusi&oacute;n. El presente estudio no muestra relaci&oacute;n entre la personalidad y la proporci&oacute;n del intento de suicidio en los usuarios de los servicios de salud en Tabasco. Sin embargo, el estado de &aacute;nimo podr&iacute;a estar asociado con la toma de decisiones.</abstract>

Introduction. Suicidal behaviour is a public health problem. It has been suggested that impulsive or premeditated personality interferes with aggressive acts such as suicide.
Objective. In this study, we identified the socio-demographic differences when attempting suicide, as well as the concomitant depression among individuals characterized by impulsive or premeditated aggression.
Methods. We performed a transversal study that included 200 residents of Villahermosa, Tabasco, Mexico, who regularly use the city&rsquo;s General Health Services. The premeditated or impulsive aggression was evaluated using the Impulsive/Premeditated Aggression scale (IPAS). The sample was divided in two groups: impulsive and premeditator individuals. Suicidal attempt, presence of depression and socio-demographic characteristics were evaluated after wards and compared between groups.
Results. The psychological evaluation revealed that impulsive aggression is present in 62.71% of the population. We observed that being unemployed and/or being a woman were characteristics associated with premeditated aggression. The premeditators group had the higher proportion of concomitant depression (&chi;2 = 18.29, gl = 1, p = 0.001). The proportion of people that had attempted suicide at least once during their lives was similar in both groups (impulsive = 6.06%, premeditators = 6.30%).
Discussion and conclusion. This study does not show any association between the personality (impulsive or premeditative) and the frequency of suicide attempts in the Tabascan General Health Services users. Nevertheless, the frame of mind (depression) could be associated with taking decisions when attempting suicide.</trans-abstract>
