TY - JOUR PY - 2008// TI - Comprehensive College Student Suicide Assessment: Application of the BASIC ID JO - Journal of American college health A1 - Paladino, Derrick A1 - Minton, Casey A. Barrio SP - 643 EP - 650 VL - 56 IS - 6 N2 - Whether one knows someone who is thinking of suicide, has attempted suicide, or has completed suicide, nearly all individuals who encounter suicide are affected. The influence and residual affects of suicide are further amplified as the issue reaches across communities such as college or university campuses. College and university staff must improve their response to suicidal ideation with comprehensive assessment and intervention. The authors discuss risk factors and basic screening methods for suicide risk. They present Lazarus' BASIC ID tool (ie, Behavior, Affective Responses, Sensations, Images, Cognitions, Interpersonal Relationships, and Drugs or Biological Influences) as a method for conducting a comprehensive suicide assessment. The authors demonstrate assessment procedures through a case vignette.
