摘要
Suicide is one of the main causes of preventable death, so there is a great need to assess possible cases at risk. In this study, a scale has been developed to identify suicidal risk, taking into account not only risk factors but also personal strengths of the subject. The instrument consists of 30 items and is intended for use by social agents. Its design was tested on 95 users of social services showing a high internal consistency (alpha=.83). The validity of the construct was evaluated by the test-retest reliability of the instrument, showing a high reliability (alpha=.72).
