S137. DO HALLUCINATIONS PREDICT THE TRANSITION FROM SUICIDAL THOUGHTS TO ATTEMPTS? RESULTS FROM AN AUSTRALIAN LONGITUDINAL COHORT STUDY

摘要

BackgroundAlthough suicidal ideation is a well-documented risk factor for suicidal behaviour, the majority of those with suicidal thoughts do not go on to make an attempt. Therefore, it is important to improve prediction of which individuals are more likely to act on their suicidal thoughts, as highlighted in Klonsky and May’s (2015) ideation-to-action framework. Auditory hallucinations (AH) and psychological distress (PD) are strongly associated with both suicidal thoughts and behaviour, but their role in the ideation-to-attempt transition has not been investigated in a longitudinal dataset.
