Suicide Cognitions Scale (multiple versions)

The Suicide Cognitions Scale (SCS) and multiple shortened versions of the scale (Suicide Cognitions Scale-Revised [SCS-R], Suicide Cognitions Scale-Short [SCS-S], and Brief Suicide Cognitions Scale [B-SCS])assess thoughts, perceptions, and beliefs that are commonly experienced by people who have attempted suicide. The scales are empirically supported indicators of increased vulnerability to suicidal behavior, and have been shown in multiple studies to be a better predictor of future suicide attempts than suicidal ideation. The scales can be used for the purposes of suicide risk screening, suicide risk assessment and monitoring, and research.

自杀认知量表（SCS）及其多种缩减版本（修订版自杀认知量表 [SCS-R]、简明自杀认知量表 [SCS-S] 和简短自杀认知量表 [B-SCS]）用于评估那些尝试自杀的人所共有的思想、认知和信念。这些量表作为衡量自杀行为易感度增加的实证指标，已被多项研究所证实，相较于自杀意念，它们在预测未来自杀尝试方面具有更高的预测价值。量表可用于自杀风险评估、风险评估与监测以及研究目的。
