Suicide screening on campus is limited by effectiveness of existing questionnaires. This study tests whether Interpersonal-Psychological Theory of Suicide (IPTS) constructs may be more effective in screening than traditional risk factors measures like the Interactive Screening Protocol (ISP). Participants were 188 traditional-age students from three different campuses recruited through a subject pool and peer recruiters. IPTS risk variables as a set explained all likelihood of higher risk responses to suicidality questions that was otherwise explained by risk factors, plus additional likelihood besides. Current IPTS measures are no screening "magic bullet," but further inquiry into use of these constructs is warranted.
校园自杀筛查受到现有问卷有效性的限制。本研究测试自杀人际心理理论(IPTS)的构成要素在筛查中是否可能比传统风险因素测量方法(如互动筛查协议,ISP)更有效。参与者是通过受试者库和同伴招募者从三个不同校区招募的188名传统年龄的学生。作为一个整体的IPTS风险变量解释了对自杀问题的高风险反应的所有可能性,而这些可能性原本是由风险因素解释的,此外还解释了额外的可能性。目前的IPTS测量方法并非筛查的“万灵药”,但有必要进一步探讨这些构成要素的用途。
