Gatekeeper trainings are an approach intended to increase help seeking for suicide prevention. However, little is known of gatekeeper training's function in increasing gatekeeper intent to intervene with those in distress. The current study utilized the theory of planned behavior as a guide to predict gatekeeper's intention to intervene over a six-month period in a pilot randomized controlled trial of the Alliance Project gatekeeper training. Results suggested that the Alliance Project, predicted the growth curve of trainees' intention to intervene better than a control training from pretest through six months. Attitudes toward completing gatekeeper behaviors and perceived behavioral control over gatekeeper behaviors approached significance in a less parsimonious model. These findings suggest the Alliance Project produces changes in gatekeeper's intent to intervene through three months' time.
把关人培训是一种旨在增加自杀预防求助的方法。然而,对于把关人培训在增加对处于困境中的人的干预意愿方面的作用,知之甚少。本研究以计划行为理论为指导,在《联盟项目》把关人培训的一项试点随机对照试验中,预测了把关人在六个月内干预的意图。结果表明,与控制培训相比,《联盟项目》更好地预测了受训者干预意图的增长曲线。在一个不那么简约的模型中,对完成把关行为的态度和对把关行为的感知行为控制接近显著。这些发现表明,《联盟项目》在三个月的时间内改变了把关人干预的意愿。
