Filter by:Experiences of violence, from micro to physical aggressions, have a deleterious impact on mental health. According to the Minority Stress Theory, unfavorable social conditions (such as anticipated and experienced discrimination and internalized homophobia), mediated by resilience strategies, can lead to mental health or illness. Sexual and gender minorities (SGM) face stigma and discrimination aggravating multiple aspects of their lives: from school drop-out to halting health care access. SGM reveal avoiding medical assistance for fear of discrimination while health professionals disclose feeling unprepared to handle SGM health needs. There are two main challenges: 1) developing specific psychological interventions to reduce the impact of stigma and discrimination on SGM' mental health; and 2) training public health professionals to properly address SGM needs. Therefore, the present trial aims to assess the efficacy of a brief, self-guided, on-line, asynchronous and unsupervised psychological intervention in improving SGM' mental health.
This study looks to conduct a systematic adaptation of Suicidal Teens Accessing Treatment (STAT-ED) for Black youth presenting in the emergency department who have suicide risk. A randomized controlled trial of STAT-ED adapted for Black youth and their caregivers will examine whether patient navigation intervention can increase mental health treatment initiation and number of visits.
This is a feasibility trial of a digital mental health intervention aimed at young adults (ages 18-25) with nonsuicidal self-injury and who are not currently engaged in mental health treatment. We will pilot three arms: a self-guided DMHI, the DMHI with low-intensity coaching, or an active control which will involve the delivery of non-interactive psychoeducational content via the same app interface. The primary goals of this project are to evaluate the feasibility of the intervention and trial procedures in preparation for a fully-powered randomized-controlled trial.
Suicide has become a major public health problem among young people around the world. This study will examine the effects of higher secondary school-based suicide prevention (HSSSP) program on youth suicidal thoughts and impulsive behavior (STIB). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the effects of didactic approach for youth STIB on the HSSSP program. This study is designed to address this issue at the secondary school level. Therefore, this research is divided into two studies. In the first study, our goal was to arrange a Baseline assessment for the screening process of adolescents at risk of suicide. while in second study we aim to implement a didactic approach based on religious teachings and culture milieu and examine its effects as an evidence based suicide prevention program.
The purpose of this study is to advance a non-pharmacologic suicide preventive intervention with wide dissemination potential as an innovative high-yield solution to reduce suicide rates. The investigators aim to achieve this with this study of Brain Emotion Circuitry Self-Monitoring and Regulation Therapy for Daily Rhythms (BE-SMART-DR), that provides self-directed strategies to regularize sleep and other DRs to reduce short-term suicide risk that can be used lifelong to potentially also reduce long-term suicide risk.
Suicide kills 132 Americans every day. The first step of suicide prevention is risk identification and prognostication. Researchers like this study team have developed and validated predictive models that use routinely collected Electronic Health Record (EHR) data like past diagnoses and medications to predict future suicide attempt risk. The study team's model based in machine learning is known as the Vanderbilt Suicide Attempt and Ideation Likelihood (VSAIL). VSAIL has been validated prospectively and externally to predict suicide attempt risk with a number needed to screen (NNS) of 271 for suicide attempt and 23 for suicidal ideation. NNS is the number of people who need to receive a test result to prevent one outcome - lower NNS is better. This study will evaluate the effectiveness of a Clinical Decision Support System called Vanderbilt Safecourse using VSAIL to prompt a novel Best Practice Advisory (BPA) to prompt face-to-face screening with a validated suicide screening instrument like the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (CSSRS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and implementation of a suicide prevention strategy delivered via telehealth in Emergency Departments. We will compare implementation of the Safety Planning Intervention plus follow-up calls (SPI+) delivered by Emergency Department (ED) staff to SPI+ delivered via ED referral to an off-site Suicide Prevention Consultation Center (SPCC).
In the UK, suicide is the leading cause of death in young people and have increased in recent years. Areas in the North of England appear particularly at risk. University students represent one vulnerable group. 42% of students contemplate suicide in any one-year period. Suicidal thinking is an important indicator of distress and clinical need, which predicts subsequent suicidal experiences and worse mental health. It is therefore an important target for clinical treatment and early intervention. However, evidenced based interventions for targeting suicidal thinking in students are lacking. This project will evaluate the feasibility of a novel psychological intervention, called the Broad Minded Affective Coping (BMAC) intervention. The BMAC aims to increase peoples' access to positive thoughts and emotions to help them to break out of cycles of negative mood and suicidal thinking. It is targeted, protocolised, and deliverable by a range of professional groups. Our existing co-development work with young people has suggested that it is acceptable and helpful to University students. This randomised controlled feasibility trial of the BMAC intervention for suicidal thinking in university students. Participants will be randomised to either a risk assessment and signposting plus the BMAC (n = 33), or risk assessment and signposting alone (n = 33). The study will assess outcomes at baseline and after eight weeks, 16 weeks, and 24 weeks. The study will explore the safety, feasibility and acceptability of delivering the intervention and trial procedures. Embedded qualitative interviews with staff and participants, and field notes, will help us to understand the potential factors affecting acceptability and delivery of the BMAC intervention and conduct of the trial, and the proposed underlying mechanisms of change. The project will be a crucial step in evaluating the BMAC for suicidal students, paving the way for a larger trial of clinical effectiveness.
The proposed study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a mindfulness-based intervention to reduce functional impairment from chronic pain and risk of suicide.
Project RISE is a randomized control trial. The intervention consists of four modules that focus on multiple aspects of interoception including: body awareness, body sensations/movement, eating, health and self-care, emotional awareness, and understanding the self in relation to others. The comparator condition is called "Health Habits" and is matched for time and attention; participants complete modules related to healthy habits such as financial planning, hygiene, stretching, and healthy eating. Variables of interest include self-report measures of interoception, eating pathology, suicidality, physiological measures of interoception (electrocardiograph; ECG; pain tolerance measured via algometer), and an implicit association test (IAT) with death and life stimuli (meant to measure implicit associations with suicidality). The population will be college students, with current or past suicidality or low interoception.
