Does suicide risk screening improve the identification of primary care patients who will attempt suicide versus depression screening alone?
Not necessarily. In this study, we found that SI screening was much less effective than depression screening in primary care.

The three groups did not differ with respect to mean mood ratings during EMA, but handgun owners who carry showed less stability in high arousal negative affect (eg, anxiety, fear).
This means it was “easier” for them to experience momentary increases in fear and anxiety in their daily lives and also took longer to recover after moments of increased anxiety.

In this study, we asked handgun owners who carry, handgun owners who don’t carry, and non-owners to complete a baseline assessment and 28 days of EMA. Here’s what we found:

Handgun owners who carry reported higher threat perceptions, meaning they view the world and other people as more dangerous.
Wondering what others think about the urgency and impatience that characterize email communications post-COVID? If I don’t respond to emails within 24-48 hrs, I often receive a “did you see my email” follow-up msg. The 2nd email just buries me even deeper and slows me more.
Interestingly, it seems as though this occurs almost exclusively for non urgent matters and messages… i.e., the emails that probably do NOT need an immediate response.
We’ve made a lot of progress testing the efficacy of integrating crisis response planning for suicide prevention with massed cognitive processing therapy. STRIVE researchers will next extend this work to massed prolonged exposure. 👇
New paper published in SLTB suggests “passive” suicidal ideation and “active” suicidal ideation are distinct constructs rather than different levels or gradients of a unitary construct.
New paper! 🚨
In this study, we examined reward-related neural functioning during predictable vs unpredictable reward conditions. Results revealed suicidal ideation is associated with increased salience network reactivity, but differences were observed during anticipation of unpredictable reward only.
