ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The aims of this study were to evaluate and compare the performance of the Chinese version of the Suicide Ideation Scale-Current (SSI-C) and the Suicide Ideation Scale-Worst (SSI-W) as suicide ideation screening tools in patients with epilepsy (PWE).METHODS:
A consecutive sample of Chinese adult PWE recruited from a tertiary hospital completed the SSI-C and SSI-W and the suicidality module of the Chinese version of the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI) Plus 5.0.0.RESULTS:
A total of 260 consecutive PWE were recruited. The area under the curve (AUC) for the SSI-C was 0.831, and the optimal cutoff score was >1 (sensitivity 73%, specificity 91%); for the SSI-W, the AUC was 0.958, and the optimal cutoff score was >2 (sensitivity 94.6%, specificity 87.4%). The AUC for the SSI-W was larger than that for the SSI-C, and the two-factor structure was considered significant.CONCLUSION:
Our results showed that the SSI-C and SSI-W had good validity as suicidal ideation screening tools in PWE in southern China and can be recommended for clinical suicidal ideation screening. The SSI-W is a better suicidal ideation screening tool than the SSI-C according to the results of our study.Palavras-chave
