“…A total of 37 articles from 2010 to 2022 were identified by search criteria and considered in detail. Sixteen of these articles were excluded from further analysis because of the following reasons: eight studies used the Suicide Trigger Scale as an instrument (Cohen et al., 2018; Hawes et al., 2017; Høyen et al., 2021, 2022; Yaseen et al., 2010, 2012, 2014, 2016), three studies only evaluated single dimensions of the SCS (Li et al., 2017; Rogers, Cao, et al., 2021; Yaseen et al., 2017), three studies did not assess STB as an outcome (Bloch‐Elkouby, Gorman, Schuck, et al., 2020; Molaie et al., 2019; Ying et al., 2021), and two studies were not written in English (Chang et al., 2022; Vespa et al., 2021). Twenty‐one articles were included in the systematic review (see Table 3).…”

BackgroundThe objective of this systematic review is to describe the scientific evidence for the Suicide Crisis Syndrome (SCS), a presuicidal cognitive and affective state consisting of five symptomatic dimensions: entrapment, affective disturbance, loss of cognitive control, hyperarousal, and social withdrawal. The aim of this article is to summarize the emerging literature on the SCS and to assess the extent to which a uniform syndrome can be assumed.MethodsA systematic literature search was conducted in three different databases (PubMed, PsycInfo, and Google Scholar) using the search terms “Suicide Crisis Inventory,” “Suicide Crisis Syndrome,” “Narrative Crisis Model of Suicide,” and “Suicide Trigger State.”ResultsIn total, 37 articles from 2010 to 2022 were identified by search criteria. Twenty‐one articles published between 2017 and 2022 were included in the systematic review. All but three studies were conducted in the United States and examined clinical samples of adult high‐risk psychiatric in‐ and outpatients. Sample sizes ranged from N = 170 to 4846. The findings confirm the unidimensional structure of the proposed disorder and support the predictive validity for short‐term suicidal behavior above and beyond suicidal ideation.ConclusionDespite the promising predictive validity of the SCS, a precise prediction of future suicidal behavior remains difficult.

Objective: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a globally devastating psychosocial impact. A detailed understanding of the mental health implications of this worldwide crisis is critical for successful mitigation of and preparation for future pandemics. Using a large international sample, we investigated in the present study the relationship between multiple COVID-19 parameters (both disease characteristics and government responses) and the incidence of the suicide crisis syndrome (SCS), an acute negative affect state associated with near-term suicidal behavior. Methods: Data were collected from 5528 adults across 10 different countries in an anonymous web-based survey between June 2020 and January 2021. Results: Individuals scoring above the SCS cut-off lived in countries with higher peak daily cases and deaths during the first wave of the pandemic. Additionally, the longer participants had been exposed to markers of pandemic severity (eg, lockdowns), the more likely they were to screen positive for the SCS. Findings reflected both country-to-country comparisons and individual variation within the pooled sample. Conclusion: Both the pandemic itself and the government interventions utilized to contain the spread appear to be associated with suicide risk. Public policy should include efforts to mitigate the mental health impact of current and future global disasters.

“…Further, the SCS demonstrated incremental predictive validity over suicidal ideation regarding suicidal attempts (Rogers et al, 2022). The SCS has been employed in numerous research and clinical settings, both in the United States and internationally (c.f., Høyen et al, 2022; Menon et al, 2022; Otte et al, 2020; Wu et al, 2022).…”
