Personalizing suicidology.
Since the dawn of modern statistics, suicidologists have been employing standard group-level analyses as the predominant quantitative approach to understanding and predicting suicidal thoughts and behaviors (STBs). Because STBs emerge as a result of processes that are highly contextualized to the individual, employing these nomothetic analyses to understand what in actuality is an idiographic process is akin to using satellite imagery to understand the behavior of microbes. In this editorial, the authors illustrate how a personalized modeling approach (i.e., quantitative idiographic analyses), made possible by developments...

Emphasis is placed on adaptable training strategies, considerations in the delivery format, guidelines for intensive virtual meetings with trainee teams, and future direct...

Implementing attachment-based family therapy for depressed and suicidal adolescents and young adults in LGBTQ+ services: Feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness.
In this study, we tested the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of ABFT in LGBTQ + community settings.

Implementing real-time data suicide surveillance systems.
In this editorial, we would like to inspire policy makers to support the real-time monitoring of suicide. Using real- time data to understand the spatiotemporal variability of suicides will allow policy makers evaluate interventions they have invested in and enable them to intervene in a timely manner in situations when an increase in suicides in any region or among any group in the community might be anticipated because of particular circumstances (e.g., quarantine, unemployment and economic crisis, or inappropriate media reporting). Real-time monitoring allows suspicions to be confirmed or rejected, which in turn gives h...
