Brief Summary

Suicide has become a major public health problem among young people around the world. This study will examine the effects of higher secondary school-based suicide prevention (HSSSP) program on youth suicidal thoughts and impulsive behavior (STIB). Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine the effects of didactic approach for youth STIB on the HSSSP program. This study is designed to address this issue at the secondary school level. Therefore, this research is divided into two studies. In the first study, our goal was to arrange a Baseline assessment for the screening process of adolescents at risk of suicide. while in second study we aim to implement a didactic approach based on religious teachings and culture milieu and examine its effects as an evidence based suicide prevention program.

Conditions

Suicidal Ideation and Behavior; Impulsivity

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

• Barratt Impulsiveness scale

  This is a 4-point likert scale and is scored in the following way; Rarely/Never= 1, Occasionally= 2, Often= 3 \& Almost/Always= 4. It contains 30 items that describe common impulsive or non-impulsive behaviors and preferences.

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.

• Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation

  This scale entails of 19 items and measures 3 responses from Least severe= 0 to Most severe= 2

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.

Secondary Outcomes (4)

• Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS)

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.

• Stroop Test

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.

• Self-Efficacy scale

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.

• Religious commitment inventory (RCI-10)

  Assessment at baseline (after screening), 8th week after baseline (2 months), 16th week after baseline (4 months). The purpose of the outcome measure is to estimate the change from baseline assessment to follow-up.
