TY - JOUR PY - 2022// TI - Effectiveness of Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) in Lithuania JO - Death studies A1 - Rimkeviciene, Jurgita A1 - Skruibis, Paulius A1 - Padroštytė, Greta SP - 2018 EP - 2024 VL - 46 IS - 8 N2 - This study evaluated the effectiveness of the Lithuanian translation of the Applied Suicide Interventions Skills Training (ASIST). In total 248 participants (45.7%) completed pre- and post-assessment and 146 (26.9%) had data at 3-month follow-up. Suicide Intervention Response Inventory (SIRI-2) was used to evaluate suicide intervention skills. The results indicated no change in the overall SIRI-2 score following training or at a 3-month follow-up. A more detailed analysis of the response pattern indicated that both following training and at 3-months follow up participants were better at identifying helpful responses but tended to overestimate their helpfulness.
