To validate the Nurses' Global Assessment of Suicide Risk (NGASR) in Spanish for an early detection identification of the risk of suicide.
A descriptive cross-sectional survey design was used for this work through face-to-face clinical interviews with each participant.
Following EQUATOR TRIPOD checklist, the index was translated and administered to a sample of 30 mental health experts and 151 university students. To examine the psychometric properties of the NGASR, the questionnaires also included other standardised scales such as BDI, SBQ and SEEQ. The research was conducted between 2022 and 2023.
The content validity index-scale (CVI-S) was 81% and the NGASR presented high reliability with a Kuder-Richardson coefficient of 0.83. Exploratory factor analysis (EFA) returned a six-factor structure for the NGASR items. The results showed that 21.7% of the students assessed had an intermediate to very high suicide risk. This study also revealed that people with mental health problems and depression had a higher risk of suicide.
Beyond the sociolinguistic Spanish validation of the scale, it should be noted that it is carried out on a young population in a nonclinical environment, something that many authors have been requesting in their previous validations. The NGASR is a useful prevention tool in university educational settings.
对西班牙版护士全球评估自杀风险量表(NGASR)进行验证,以便早期识别自杀风险。
采用描述性横断面调查设计,通过与每位参与者进行面对面的临床访谈来完成这项工作。
根据 EQUATOR TRIPOD 清单,对 30 名心理健康专家和 151 名大学生进行了指数翻译和评估。为了检验 NGASR 的心理测量学特性,问卷还包括其他标准化量表,如 BDI、SBQ 和 SEEQ。该研究于 2022 年至 2023 年进行。
内容效度指数-量表(CVI-S)为 81%,NGASR 具有较高的可靠性,Kuder-Richardson 系数为 0.83。探索性因素分析(EFA)得出了 NGASR 项目的六因素结构。结果显示,21.7%的评估学生具有中等到非常高的自杀风险。本研究还表明,有心理健康问题和抑郁的人自杀风险更高。
除了对该量表进行社会语言学西班牙语验证之外,还应该注意到,这是在非临床环境中对年轻人群进行的,这是许多作者在之前的验证中一直要求的。NGASR 是大学教育环境中一种有用的预防工具。
