Abstract

Suicide ideation and suicide behavior occur commonly in clinical contexts. While various instruments for the assessment of suicidality have been developed and validated internationally, only few German instruments are presently available. The present study examines the psychometric properties of the newly developed Scale for Suicidal Experience and Behavior (SSEV) in five samples with N = 1 099 subjects. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis revealed a one-dimensional structure of the scale. The internal consistency of the scale is high, and strong positive associations were found with various measures of current theoretical models of suicide as well as with depression, anxiety, and distress. Further analyses exhibited negative correlations with social support and positive mental health. Overall, the results indicate that the SSEV is a reliable and valid instrument for measuring acute suicidality and can be applied in research and clinical practice.
