翻译后摘要：在一个大的（n = 707）非随机样本的北美军官参与枪击事件（OIS）的警察案件（SBC）自杀的频率和特点进行了调查。 “警察自杀”是指一个主体从事的行为构成了严重伤害或死亡的明显风险，其目的是促使执法部门对该主体使用致命武力。该样本中36%的OIS被发现为SBC，类别分类的评分者间一致性较高（组内相关系数= 0.93）。 SBC病例比常规OIS病例更可能导致受试者死亡或受伤。大多数SBC病例是自发的，但在事件发生之前和期间有明确的言语和行为指标。研究结果证实了早期研究中发现的趋势，即OIS中SBC的发病率越来越高。SBC个人拥有武器的可能性很高（80%），其中60%的时间是枪支。在遭遇战中，有一半的持枪者向警察开枪。19%的人模拟持有武器来实现自杀意图。其他研究结果突出了这个高风险群体的历史和共性。
Abstract: The frequency and characteristics of suicide by cop cases (SBC) among a large (n = 707) nonrandom sample of North American officer‐involved shootings (OIS) were investigated. “Suicide by cop” is when a subject engages in behavior which poses an apparent risk of serious injury or death, with the intent to precipitate the use of deadly force by law enforcement against the subject. Thirty‐six percent of the OIS in this sample were found to be SBC with high interrater agreement (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0.93) for category classification. SBC cases were more likely to result in the death or injury of the subjects than regular OIS cases. Most SBC cases were spontaneous, but had clear verbal and behavioral indicators that occurred prior to, and during the event. Findings confirm the trend detected in earlier research that there was a growing incidence of SBC among OIS. SBC individuals had a high likelihood of possessing a weapon (80%), which was a firearm 60% of the time. Half of those with a firearm discharged it at the police during the encounter. Nineteen percent simulated weapon possession to accomplish their suicidal intent. Other findings highlight the histories and commonalities in this high risk group.
