Measures of social disconnection with reliable cut-off scores are needed to aid in the assessment of clinically significant change. <i>Aims:</i> The current study sought to identify reliable clinical cut-off scores for the 15-item Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (INQ-15), which assesses two indices of social disconnection associated with suicide ideation - thwarted belonging (TB) and perceived burden (PB) on others. <i>Methods:</i> The INQ-15 and measures of suicide ideation were administered to psychiatric outpatients (<i>N</i>_sample1 = 493; <i>N</i>_sample2 = 213) and psychiatric inpatients (<i>N</i>_sample3 = 79; <i>N</i>_sample4 = 87). <i>Results:</i> Reliable cut-off scores discriminating between the presence and absence of suicide ideation were identified across samples (TB ≥ 36 for psychiatric outpatients and ≥ 32 for inpatients; PB ≥ 12 for both psychiatric outpatients and inpatients). <i>Limitations:</i> Data are cross-sectional; thus, conclusions cannot be made about the predictive utility of INQ scores for future suicide ideation, attempts, or death. <i>Conclusions:</i> The INQ-15 yields scores with reliable cut-off scores for both TB and PB that represent clinically significant levels of social disconnection. These cut-off scores can be used in treatment trials and clinical practice to assess clinical improvement (or decline) in belonging and perceived burden.</p>","PeriodicalId":47943,"journal":{"name":"Crisis-The Journal of Crisis Intervention and Suicide Prevention","volume":" ","pages":"406-414"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10412729/pdf/nihms-1908815.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10022741","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Kernel density visualization was used to assess geospatial clustering of hotel suicides, and the degree of planning involved was assessed using the modified Suicide Intent Scale. <i>Results:</i> Hotels accounted for 2% of all suicide deaths and 6.2% of suicides occurring away from home. Females were over-represented (<i>p</i> < .0001), as were deaths by drug overdoses (<i>p</i> < .0001) and falls (<i>p</i> < .0001). Approximately 40% of incidents occurred within seven geospatial clusters. 85% of those who died were state residents, with a median distance from home of 13.0 km. Most individuals checked in to the hotel alone, for short stays, and displayed a high degree of suicidal planning. <i>Limitations:</i> Coronial records had limited information on narrative circumstances of deaths; other indicators of risk may not have been identified. A comparison against a general population of hotel guests, rather than all other suicide deaths would be more useful in terms of preventative activities, however these data were not readily available. <i>Conclusion:</i> This study identified characteristics, behaviors, and geographic locations associated with hotel suicides to inform training of hotel staff to recognize and respond to signs of risk. Males of working age who live locally and arrive alone for short stays could be considered at a higher risk of suicide, and prevention efforts should be prioritized in the identified high-risk areas.</p>","PeriodicalId":47943,"journal":{"name":"Crisis-The Journal of Crisis Intervention and Suicide Prevention","volume":" ","pages":"380-388"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10385742","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
