The current study evaluated the long-term effectiveness of a peer delivered suicide prevention gatekeeper training program for college students. : 1,345 undergraduate students (M = 20.24, SD = 3.27; 89.6% White) received the peer led training during a single class-period. Participants completed pre- post- and 3-month follow-up surveys assessing knowledge, perceived intervention skills, willingness to intervene, and self-efficacy. Engagement in gatekeeper behaviors were assessed at follow-up. Two open-ended questions provided data for qualitative analysis. Both quantitative and qualitative data indicated that participants showed substantial increases in all outcomes from pre- to post-training, and these gains were maintained at follow-up. Participants reported engaging in gatekeeper intervention behaviors at follow-up and qualitative results provide evidence this was due to the training. Peer led suicide prevention gatekeeper training is feasible, appears to be effective, and can enhance campus' capacity to provide sustainable suicide prevention programming on campus.
本研究评估了一项由同伴提供的针对大学生的自杀预防守门人培训计划的长期效果。1345名本科生（M = 20.24，SD = 3.27；89.6%为白人）在一个课时内接受了同伴主导的培训。参与者完成了培训前、培训后和3个月随访调查，评估知识、感知干预技能、干预意愿和自我效能感。在随访时评估守门人行为的参与情况。两个开放式问题提供了定性分析的数据。定量和定性数据均表明，参与者在培训前到培训后的所有结果上都有显著提高，并且这些收获在随访时得以维持。参与者报告在随访时参与了守门人干预行为，定性结果提供了证据表明这是由于培训所致。同伴主导的自杀预防守门人培训是可行的，似乎是有效的，并且可以提高校园提供可持续自杀预防计划的能力。
