Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (9)

  • Change from baseline in suicidality on the Ask Suicide-Screening Questions (ASQ) questionnaire at 2 months and 4 months

    The ASQ is a validated 4-item screen for suicidal ideation and behavior (yes/no) administered via interview. There is an additional 5th item if there is endorsement of one or more of the previous items.

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in suicidal ideation and behavior on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at 2 months and 4 months

    The C-SSRS is a validated, semi-structured interview that assesses both suicidal behavior and suicidal ideation (yes/no, frequency), with flexible timepoints and multiple informants depending on administrator purpose and need.

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in lethality/medical damage of suicide attempt on the Medical Damage Lethality Rating Scale (MD-LRS) at 2 months and 4 months

    The MD-LRS is a validated assessment of the degree of actual (6-point scale; 0=none; 5=death) or potential lethality (physical damage to the body; 3-point scale; 0=Behavior not likely to result in injury; 2=Behavior likely to result in injury despite available medical care) of a suicide attempt. The MD-LRS is completed by the interviewer based on details provided on the C-SSRS.

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in aspects of suicide intent on the Suicide Intent Scale (SIS) at 2 months and 4 months

    The SIS is a validated 15-item interview measure that assesses all relevant behavioral and circumstantial aspects surrounding an actual suicide attempt, including plans, preparation elements, and conception of the lethality of the chosen method (3-point scale; 0=no or less intent; 2=more intent).

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in suicidal ideation severity on the Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire-Junior (SIQ-JR) at 2 months and 4 months

    The SIQ-JR is a 15-item modified version of the 30-item Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire. The SIQ-JR is a validated self-report measure of suicidal ideation severity in adolescents (7-point scale; 0="I never had this thought"; 6="Almost every day").

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in aspects of insomnia on the Adolescent Sleep Wake Scale (ASWS) at 2 months and 4 months

    The ASWS is a 28-item, validated, self-report measure that assesses sleep onset insomnia, sleep maintenance insomnia, and morning awakenings (6-point scale; 0=Never; 5=Always).

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in sleep hygiene behaviors on the Adolescent Sleep Hygiene Scale (ASHS) at 2 months and 4 months

    The ASHS is a validated, self-report, 28-item measure assessing sleep-inhibiting (e.g., caffeine use, technology use) and sleep-facilitating behaviors (6-point scale; 0=Never; 5=Always).

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in adverse effects of disordered sleep on the on the Sleep-Disordered Breathing Subscale (SDBS) of the Pediatric Sleep Questionnaire (PSQ) at 2 months and 4 months

    The participating parent will complete the 7-item SDBS of the PSQ, which assesses potential behavioral and physical adverse effects of sleep disorders (yes, no, or don't know).

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Change from baseline in typical hours slept on item 4 of the BEARS Sleep Screening Tool Adapted - Adolescents measure at 2 months and 4 months

    The BEARS is a validated self-report measure assessing bedtime problems (B), excessive daytime sleepiness (E), awakenings during the night (A), and regularity and duration of sleep (R). Question 4 (R) asks how many hours the adolescent sleeps on a typical week night and typical weekend night.

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • General Information Sheet (GIS)

    Baseline

  • Child and Adolescent Symptom Inventory-5 (CASI-5)

    Baseline

  • Change from baseline in psychosocial functioning and impairment on the Columbia Impairment Scale (CIS) at 2 months and 4 months

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • Drug Use Screening Inventory (DUSI)

    Baseline

  • Change from baseline in health risk behaviors on the 2017 National Youth Risk Behavior Survey at 2 months and 4 months

    Baseline, 2-months & 4-months

  • +5 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

TAILOR

EXPERIMENTAL

Half of the participants will be randomized into the experimental arm of this study. A study clinician will call each family approximately 4 times over 2 months. The study clinician will conduct suicide risk screening and further assessment and safety planning where deemed necessary. The TAILOR intervention will then be administered. TAILOR includes the assessment of existing sleep problems and sleep practices and education on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) strategies for insomnia, with Motivational Interviewing (MI) as the communication style.

Behavioral: TAILOR

Enhanced Usual Care (EUC)

OTHER

Half of the participants will be randomized into Enhanced Usual Care (EUC). A study clinician will call each family approximately 4 times over 2 months. The study clinician will conduct suicide risk screening and further assessment and safety planning where deemed necessary.

Other: Enhanced Usual Care

Interventions

TAILORBEHAVIORAL

The first TAILOR session will assess existing sleep problems from both the adolescent's and parent/legal guardian's perspectives, concluding with offering a CBT strategy to try. Session 2 will involve getting feedback from the family on that specific strategy and then offering additional CBT strategies. The remaining sessions will be devoted to refining the use of CBT strategies. MI will be integrated as the communication style throughout, including reflective listening, rolling with resistance, and showing deference to the family's ultimate decisions. The interventionist will also use the "elicit-provide-elicit" approach from MI. The interventionist will elicit the family's own ideas for improving the adolescent's sleep, ask for permission to provide his/her own suggestions, and then gauge the family's reactions to those suggestions, versus simply recommending a CBT strategy and problem-solving barriers to implementation.

TAILOR

The study clinician will conduct suicide risk screening and further assessment and safety planning where deemed necessary.
