To date, SP has received little attentioninthe psychiatric literature. This study was conducted to further investigate SP and its characteristics in a German student population. The participants (N = 133) completed various self-report questionnaires. More than 90% (n = 122) reported occasional SP, with six students (4.6%) endorsing significant impairment from recurrent, self-injurious SP. SP was triggered by specific cutaneous stimuli, situations, and emotions. The students primarily squeezed (85%) and scratched (77.4%) the skin, with a primary focus on the face (94.7%) and cuticles (52.6%). About 20% (n = 26) ate the picked tissue afterward. Results suggest SP is an underrecognized problem that occurs on a continuum ranging from mild to severe with generally stable clinical characteristics across cultures.
