Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The evaluation of outpatient treatment adherence among 140 Latina adolescent suicide attempters and their families. METHOD: Sequentially, 75 attempters received standard emergency room care and 65 attempters received a specialized emergency room program including (1) training workshops for emergency room staff, (2) a videotape aimed at modifying families' treatment expectations, and (3) an on-call family therapist. RESULTS: Attempters receiving the specialized program were more likely to attend one treatment session (95.4% versus 82.7%) and were somewhat more likely to attend more sessions (5.7 versus 4.7) than those receiving standard emergency room care; however, their mothers were less likely to complete treatment. In addition, participants receiving the specialized program reported reduced psychiatric symptoms, and mothers reported more positive attitudes toward treatment and perceptions of family interactions. CONCLUSIONS: Adherence was significantly improved by receiving the specialized care program in the emergency room. Adherence was also associated with increased suicidal ideation, more cohesive family relations, and lower self-esteem at baseline.

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.
