Motivational Interviewing-Enhanced Safety Planning for Adolescents at High Suicide Risk: A Pilot Randomized Controlled Trial
Abstract
This pilot randomized controlled trial examined the feasibility and acceptability of a motivational interview (MI)-enhanced safety planning intervention (MI-SafeCope) for teens hospitalized due to suicide risk and explored proximal outcomes (possible mechanisms of change). Participants were 36 hospitalized adolescents (ages 13-17; 78.8% female) with last-week suicidal ideation and/or past-month suicide attempts. Adolescents were randomized to MI-SafeCope, a three-component intervention (individual and family sessions, postdischarge call), or to treatment as usual. Primary outcomes were feasibility and acceptability. We also explored differences in proximal outcomes assessed at 2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months (family connectedness, motivation for safety plan use, parental motivation to encourage safety plan use), as well as daily for 4 weeks (self-efficacy, coping behavior, safety plan use). Participation and retention rates and intervention satisfaction ratings indicate feasibility and acceptability. Mixed-effects models of daily assessments indicated, for the MI-SafeCope group, significantly higher self-efficacy to refrain from suicidal action (B = 1.15, p = .030), greater reliance on self to cope with suicidal ideation (B = 1.56, p = .042), and higher likelihood of safety plan use to manage suicidal thoughts (B = 0.25, p = .004). Parents in the MI-SafeCope group reported higher motivation to encourage safety plan use (B = 1.04, p = .031). Safety planning incorporating MI is feasible and acceptable with hospitalized teens. Preliminary findings suggest that MI strategies may be promising in maintaining adherence to safety plans, increasing self-efficacy and coping, and in fostering parents' motivation to encourage safety plan use. Our study also highlights the benefit of daily-level assessment of individuals' response to suicide-specific interventions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
