Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is considered one of the defining features of people diagnosed with
Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). Longitudinal studies are needed to identify factors predicting
future NSSI in BPD participants. Several studies have shown that low meaning in life is associated with
mental health problems, addiction problems, depression, hopelessness, and suicide. The purpose of this
paper is to examine whether meaning in life predicts the frequency of NSSI behaviors during the oneyear
follow-up. The sample was composed up of 80 participants with a BPD diagnosis. We assessed the
frequency of NSSI behaviors over a 12-month follow-up period. The results suggest that the participants
who had low meaning in life had more frequency of NSSI, depression, and hopelessness at baseline, and
more frequency of NSSI during the follow-up, than participants with high meaning in life. The predictor
variables: Frequency of NSSI at base line, depression, hopelessness, and meaning in life, significantly
predicted the frequency of NSSI during the one-year follow-up. Therefore, meaning in life was the only
predictor of NSSI during the follow-up period. [-]
