Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary the Literacy of Suicide Scale A minimum score of 0 and a maximum total score of 27 can be obtained from the scale. The scale does not have any cut-off point. The higher the score obtained from the scale, the higher the level of knowledge about suicide. Pretests were applied before the sessions. Intervention sessions of three sessions were implemented 5-8 days apart. Post-tests were administered as soon as the third session was completed. Follow-up tests were conducted 90 days after the post-tests.
Primary Efficacy Perception Scale For Suicide Risk Management This scale consists of 26 items. The lowest score that can be obtained from this scale is 26 and the highest score is 130, and the scale has no cut-off point. An increase in the score obtained from the scale indicates that nurses' self-perception is becoming more positive in relation to their knowledge and skills in the recognition and management of suicide risk. Pretests were applied before the sessions. Intervention sessions of three sessions were implemented 5-8 days apart. Post-tests were administered as soon as the third session was completed. Follow-up tests were conducted 90 days after the post-tests.
Primary The Stigma of Suicide Scale There are 55 items in total in the scale. The scale has three subscales: "stigma", "isolation/depression" and "glorification/normalization". Total score is not calculated in the scale. High scores from the "stigma" sub-dimension of the scale indicate high stigma towards suicide. High scores from the "isolation/depression" sub-dimension of the scale indicate that suicide is more associated with depression and isolation, while high scores from the "normalization" sub-dimension indicate that individuals normalize suicide rather than stigmatizing people who commit suicide. Pretests were applied before the sessions. Intervention sessions of three sessions were implemented 5-8 days apart. Post-tests were administered as soon as the third session was completed. Follow-up tests were conducted 90 days after the post-tests.
