Passive Assessment of Behavioral Warning Signs for Suicide Risk in Adolescents: An Idiographic Approach

A research project funded by the National Institute of Mental Health to develop personalized risk models for suicide in adolescents using mobile sensing and wearable devices to monitor behavioral changes.

Description

This project aims to employ mobile sensing and actigraphy to assess whether objectively and passively measured acute behavioral changes from typical patterns of social engagement, sleep, and physical activity indicate proximal risk for increases in suicidal ideation using idiographic n-of-1 models in high-risk adolescents. It further aims to characterize the intraindividual network structure of these behavioral factors and suicidal ideation to enhance suicide risk assessment and guide intervention.
