Scientific titlePrevention of Suicide risk in patients with psychosis through the development of a focused and conceptually-driven intervention
Study acronymCBSPp
Study objectivesStudy aims:
1. To confirm and describe the psychological architecture that drives suicide behaviour, this consists of: information processing biases, suicide schema and appraisal systems. We intend to investigate hypotheses relating to determine the role of these in suicide behaviour specifically we will use information processing tasks such as autobiographical memory tasks to investigate bias; standardised assessment to investigate appraisal and schema.
2. To derive a method of assessing this architecture through semi-structured interview that will have clinical utility
3. To formulate and develop a manualised cognitive behavioural treatment programme for suicide prevention in psychosis and to test the clinical acceptance and feasibility of this intervention. It is hypothesised that the treatment will be acceptable, feasible and reduce suicide behaviour.
4. At the end of the programme we will be in position to design a clinical trial to test the efficacy of the intervention
