Augmenting Suicide Prevention Interventions for Service Members (ASPIS)

Abstract

Research to prevent suicidality among Servicemembers supports the effectiveness of several strategies. Though better on average than traditional approaches to suicide prevention, some Servicemembers do not benefit from or respond to these strategies. Very little is known about when or for whom these strategies are most likely to work, however. As a result, mental health professionals and military leaders are unable to strategically deliver interventions in ways that maximize impact and efficiency. The overall objective of this project is to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and scale of evidence-based strategies to prevent suicidality among Servicemembers. We propose to achieve this objective through five synergistic research studies guided by a common, overarching question: What strategies,delivered how, by whom, and under which circumstances, are most effective for whom?
