New NIMH Suicide Prevention Research Briefs
NIMH this week announced findings from two new research projects around suicide prevention.
In Differences in Suicide Risk Among Subgroups of Sexual and Gender Minority College Students, researchers found that college students identifying as a sexual or gender minority had higher rates of suicidal risk factors than cisgender and heterosexual peers, and that there were significant differences in risk among sexual minority subgroups.
In Brief Suicide Prevention Interventions in Acute Care Settings May Reduce Subsequent Suicide Attempts, researchers analyzed multiple studies to determine the effectiveness of brief suicide prevention interventions in acute care settings.
