Although comparisons across tasks cannot be made due to the different times of administration, within-task comparisons suggest that, at the doses tested here, each stimulant may produce differential advantages depending on the cognitive demands of the task.
This investigation used hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) to examine whether index responses on the Suicide Status Form (SSF) moderated the predicted session-to-session change over course of care in overall symptoms and suicidal ideation. Ninety-two suicidal patients at a university counseling center were studied. Overall, suicidal patients improved symptomatically and decreased their suicidal ideation over the course of care. SSF index ratings of overall risk of suicide significantly moderated the predicted session-to-session change in suicidal ideation over the course of care; patient ratings of frequency of suicidal thoughts were also moderated by index SSF ratings of hopelessness and self-hate. These findings partially replicated earlier data of differential treatment response outcomes and provide valuable assessment and treatment information that is relevant to future research and successful clinical care of suicidal outpatients.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
