Suicide remains a pressing issue for college communities. Consequently, gatekeeper trainings are often provided for staff. This study examines the effect of one such program, Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST).
51 college employees received ASIST in August of 2014 and were compared to 30 wait-list control participants.
Repeated Measures ANOVA were used to analyze pre- and post-training: (a) skills at responding to students-at-risk; (b) attitudes toward suicide; (c) knowledge about suicide; and (d) comfort/competence/confidence at helping a student-at-risk.
Significant positive training effects were observed for ASIST on self-report measures and also for objectively assessed skill at responding, after adjusting for a potential scoring limitation of the Suicide Intervention Response Inventory, Revised (SIRI-2).
ASIST improved the self-perception of college staff at working with students-at-risk of suicide and also their skills at performing an intervention. Further, analysis of SIRI-2 data provides support for a potential instrument revision.
自杀仍是大学社区面临的紧迫问题。因此，通常会为工作人员提供守门人培训。本研究考察了其中一个项目，即应用自杀干预技能培训（ASIST）的效果。
2014年8月，51名大学员工接受了ASIST培训，并与30名等待名单控制组参与者进行了比较。
采用重复测量方差分析来分析培训前后的情况：（a）应对高危学生的技能；（b）对自杀的态度；（c）关于自杀的知识；以及（d）帮助高危学生时的舒适度/能力/信心。
在调整了修订后的自杀干预反应量表（SIRI-2）的潜在评分限制后，观察到ASIST在自我报告测量方面有显著的积极培训效果，在客观评估的应对技能方面也有显著效果。
ASIST提高了大学工作人员在与有自杀风险的学生合作时的自我认知以及他们进行干预的技能。此外，对SIRI-2数据的分析为潜在的量表修订提供了支持。
