Study & Design

Study Type: Interventional

Study Design: Not specified

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>Change suicidality as measured with the SIQ-JR, pre-post at baseline, 5.5, 8.5,<br /><br>11.5 and 17.5 months after baseline. </p><br>

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
<p>The secondary outcomes are (fatal) suicide attempts (SCID-S), depression<br /><br>(SCID-S,PHQ-9, and CDI-2), disability (WHODAS 2.0), family functioning (SRFF),<br /><br>non-suicidal self injury (NSSI), young adult attachment (SBS), entrapment<br /><br>(E-SF), autonomy (My Parents and I: a combination of items van de EAS en de<br /><br>PSI), childhood trauma (CTQ), working alliance (WAI-12), ABFT treatment<br /><br>fidelity (TBRS-3), treatment adherence (TPC), cost-effectiveness and health<br /><br>care costs (EQ-5D-5L, TiC-P). The secondary study parameters will be analysed<br /><br>using Generalized Linear Mixed Modelling with adequate link functions, using<br /><br>all five assessment time points of the primary outcome measure<br /><br>cost-effectiveness analyses. </p><br>
