Suicidal behaviors among adolescents represents a public health problem due to its high
prevalence and its low predictability. It is also known that brain development continues
during adolescence, therefore, a therapeutic intervention during this period might
propitiate neural changes that might favor the emotional regulation involved in suicidal
behaviors. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy has proved to be effective regarding this problem.
For this reason, the investigators aimed to study the clinical, neuropsychological and
neural effects of Dialectical Behavioral Therapy in adolescents with suicidal behaviors.
