abstract="OBJECTIVE: To examine relations between self-report and behavioral measures of impulsivity and cognitive flexibility with suicidal ideation and self-harm and suicide attempt history. <br><br>METHODS: Eighty-seven military veterans who met DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) were evaluated for current suicidal ideation and self-harm, suicide attempt history, impulsivity, and cognitive flexibility. <br><br>RESULTS: Higher levels of self-reported impulsivity were associated with greater suicidal ideation and self-harm, and lower behavioral inhibition was associated with greater likelihood of endorsing a suicide attempt. <br><br>CONCLUSION: Use of multi-modal assessment of impulsivity and cognitive flexibility may aid in suicide screening and intervention among vulnerable and high-risk populations.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
