考虑到自杀和其他形式的自残行为的普遍存在,具有讽刺意味的是,对精神卫生工作者进行自杀干预方面的培训相对较少。在评估这类工作人员或他们所服务的机构的效力方面花费的努力更少。我们回顾了用于评估自杀干预过程和结果的评估策略,从宏观分析危机服务对社区自杀率的影响到微观分析个别自杀干预者的能力。特别关注自杀干预反应问卷,这是一种自我管理的自杀咨询技能测试,其有效性、可靠性和实用价值表明,在更广泛的研究和应用环境中使用它是有益的。讨论了每种评估策略的优缺点,并为未来研究和计划评估工作的完善提供了指导方针。
Considering the prevalence of suicide and other forms of self-injurious behavior, it is ironic that relatively little attention has been paid to the training of mental health workers in suicide intervention. Still less effort has been spent in evaluating the effectiveness of such workers or the agencies in which they serve. We review the evaluation strategies that have been used to assess the process and outcome of suicide intervention, ranging from macroanalyses of the impact of crisis services on suicide rates in the community to microanalyses of the competence of individual suicide interventionists. Particular attentions is paid to the Suicide Intervention Response Inventory, a self-administered test of suicide counseling skills whose validity, reliability, and practical utility suggest the benefit of its use in a broader range of research and applied settings. The advantages and disadvantages of each evaluation strategy are discussed, and guidelines are offered for the sophistication of future research and program evaluation efforts.
