Individuals with autism are at heightened risk for experiencing suicidality compared to those without autism. Despite this, it is unknown what tools are used to assess suicide risk in research and clinical practice among children and youth with autism. This systematic review examined tools commonly used to measure suicidality in children and youth with and without autism spectrum disorder. Four databases were searched. We identified five tools (C-SSRS, PSS, SITBI, SIQ-JR, BSS) commonly used with youth in the general population; however, we did not identify any tools that were commonly used autistic children and youth. Results highlight the lack of available tools utilized to measure suicidality in autistic children and youth. We propose a framework to facilitate research to fill this gap.
自闭症患者的自杀风险高于非自闭症患者。尽管如此，目前尚不清楚在自闭症儿童和青少年的研究和临床实践中使用哪些工具来评估自杀风险。本系统评价检查了常用于评估自闭症谱系障碍儿童和青少年自杀风险的工具。四个数据库进行了搜索。我们确定了五种常用于普通人群青少年的工具（C-SSRS、PSS、SITBI、SIQ-JR、BSS）；然而，我们没有发现任何常用于自闭症儿童和青少年的工具。结果突出表明，缺乏用于测量自闭症儿童和青少年自杀风险的可用工具。我们提出了一个框架，以促进研究来填补这一空白。
