TY - JOUR PY - 1999// TI - PTSD and chronic suicidal ideation: the role of counter suicidal cognition JO - Traumatology A1 - Sivak, Joseph A1 - Swartz, Jody L. A1 - Swenson, David X. SP - 1 EP - 6 VL - 5 IS - 3 N2 - Post traumatic stress disorder is often associated with an increase in suicidal thoughts and behaviors. However, this link remains poorly understood; particularly unclear are the mechanisms victims use to help them persevere through periods of increased suicidal ideation. This pilot study of veterans examines the frequency and quantity of suicidal ideation as well as preventative cognitions the victim utilizes to prevent suicide. These cognitions are known as counter-suicidal cognitions.
