Positive mental health, stressful life events, and suicide ideation: A 2-year follow-up study.
Conclusions: Positive mental health interacts with stressful life events, such that those with high levels of positive mental health show an attenuated increase in suicide ideation at elevated levels of stress. Positive mental health seems to confer resilience and should be focused on in counseling centers for students.

Outreach psychiatric emergency service: Characteristics of patients with suicidal behavior and subsequent policy.
Conclusions: Suicidal behavior is commonplace in assessments by psychiatric emergency services. Suicidal patients with/without a suicide attempt differed with respect to demographic features, primary diagnoses, and referring entities, but not with respect to treatment policy. About 40% of the suicidal patients with/without an attempt were admitted following assessment.

Self-disgust and its relationship with lifetime suicidal ideation and behavior: Results from a cross-sectional, internet-based survey.
Conclusion: Future studies are required to replicate these findings. Additionally, stronger research designs are needed in order to investigate whether self-disgust should be targeted in suicide prevention programs and interventions.

Patients’ satisfaction with the therapeutic relationship and therapeutic outcome is related to suicidal ideation in the Attempted Suicide Short Intervention Program (ASSIP).
Conclusion: In particular, the component satisfaction with therapeutic outcome seems crucial to the subjectively perceived satisfaction of treatment and is associated with lower suicidal ideation over time. Thus, an enhanced understanding of components of the therapeutic alliance plays an important role in the development of interventions for suicidal patients.

Prospective validity of the Suicide Cognitions Scale among acutely suicidal military personnel seeking unscheduled psychiatric intervention.
Conclusion: Results support the SCS as an indicator of subsequent risk for suicidal behavior when used in acute care settings, and suggest the scale's performance is similar to more traditional suicide risk screening methods that depend on honest self-disclosure of suicidal thoughts.

Systematic review of the inclusion of people with psychosis in suicide-specific clinical trials.
Conclusion: Three out of five trials with suicide-related primary outcomes excluded psychosis; thus, people with psychosis are poorly represented in suicide-specific studies. This disparity could be remedied by either adapting protocols to include people with psychosis or developing new, tailored treatments.

Research note on whether sexual minority individuals are over-represented among suicide's casualties.
Conclusion: Although ample evidence demonstrates higher suicidal thoughts and attempts among sexual minority males, three studies presently do not confirm their greater propensity to die by suicide, compared with heterosexual males; yet, for sexual minority females the evidence is steadily mounting showing their greater suicide risks.

Exploration of benefits and potential harmful effects of an online forum for visitors to the suicide prevention platform in The Netherlands.
Conclusion: In its current form, the forum has a low reach with few benefits and a potential for harm for its users.
