This practical and informative text lays out the product of a
number of years of clinical research into suicide behaviour and its
prevention. While the focus is on non-affective psychosis and the
schizophrenia-spectrum disorders, the mechanisms underlying suicide
behaviour in this group may well underlie or at least influence
suicide behaviour in other disorders. The authors describe methods
of assessment through individual formulation, and a cognitive
behavioural intervention through case studies, to reduce the risk
of suicide. This book argues that: * Suicide behaviour lies on a
cognitive-behavioural continuum from ideation, through intention to
action. * Mechanisms based on biased information processing
systems, the development of suicide schema, and appraisal styles
are likely to be fruitful in explaining suicidal thoughts and
behaviours. * A psychological theory of suicide behaviour is needed
in order to develop a mechanism of suicide and to understand the
components of suicidal thoughts and behaviours. * Suicide risk can
be reduced through the use of the intervention methods described
within the text Cognitive Behavioural Prevention of Suicide in
Psychosis evaluates practical applications of contemporary research
on this topic, and will therefore be of interest to practitioners,
post-graduates in training, and researchers studying suicide and/or
psychosis.
