The aim of this study was to assess the validity of a mobile application-based self-report questionnaire in the assessment of suicidality. We developed a program for the administration of self-report components of the Suicide Ideation and Behavior Assessment Tool (SIBAT). We invited university students and trainees enrolled in a study of addictions to complete this component of the SIBAT using the program on their mobile devices or personal computer. 196 participants completed all required modules of the SIBAT, with 97 using their mobile device and 99 using their personal computer. Rates of completed questionnaires between the two groups were compared, as were the responses to the items and the total scores. There was a significant difference between proportions of scale completion in both groups, with a greater number of participants who used a personal computer to complete the scale not responding to all questions compared to participants who used a mobile device to complete the scale. Data collected via mobile device showed good concurrent validity with data collected via personal computer. A trend toward greater disclosure of suicidality was observed in the mobile device group however, replication of these findings using larger sample sizes is needed.
本研究旨在评估基于移动应用程序的自我报告问卷在评估自杀意念方面的有效性。我们开发了一个程序，用于管理自杀意念和行为评估工具（SIBAT）的自我报告部分。我们邀请了大学生和成瘾研究的学员使用他们的移动设备或个人计算机上的程序完成 SIBAT 的这一部分。196 名参与者完成了 SIBAT 的所有必需模块，其中 97 名使用移动设备，99 名使用个人计算机。比较了两组完成问卷的比例，以及对项目的反应和总分数。两组之间完成量表的比例存在显著差异，与使用移动设备完成量表的参与者相比，使用个人计算机完成量表的参与者中，有更多的人未回答所有问题。通过移动设备收集的数据与通过个人计算机收集的数据具有良好的同时效度。然而，在移动设备组中观察到自杀意念更大程度的披露趋势，但是需要使用更大的样本量来复制这些发现。
