Suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs) are a significant public health problem. This study aims to examine the validity and reliability of the Turkish version of the Suicide Cognitions Scale-Revised (SCS-R). Participants ( = 442, age range: 18-29 years) completed the SCS-R, the Beck Depression Inventory, the Inventory of Statements About Self-injury, the Suicide Probability Scale, and the Suicide Rumination Scale. Principal component analysis showed that the SCS-R consisted of a single factor and that the SCS-R could differentiate between participants at high risk and low risk of suicide. High-to-moderate positive associations were found between the measures of depression, suicide probability, suicide rumination, and non-suicidal self-injury and suicide cognition. The Turkish version of the SCS-R has good psychometric properties. This scale can be used to screen for cognitive patterns that are most prone to suicide and to manage such cognitive characteristics, which are important steps for preventive interventions.
自杀意念和行为（STBs）是一个重大的公共卫生问题。本研究旨在检验修订后的自杀认知量表（SCS-R）土耳其语版本的有效性和信度。参与者（n=442，年龄范围：18-29 岁）完成了 SCS-R、贝克抑郁量表、自我伤害陈述量表、自杀概率量表和自杀沉思量表。主成分分析表明，SCS-R 由一个单一因素组成，并且 SCS-R 可以区分自杀风险高和低的参与者。抑郁、自杀概率、自杀沉思和非自杀性自伤与自杀认知之间存在高度到中度的正相关。SCS-R 的土耳其语版本具有良好的心理测量特性。该量表可用于筛选最易发生自杀的认知模式，并对这些认知特征进行管理，这是预防干预的重要步骤。
