简要总结
The proposed research addresses the urgent need to reduce suicide rates among teens. This will be the first study that the investigators know of that will examine the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of augmenting a suicide-focused treatment (Dialectical Behavior Therapy, [DBT]) with an evidence-based treatment protocol for insomnia (a digital version of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia [CBT-I]). The goal of this clinical trial is to learn providing insomnia treatment in conjunction with suicide-focused treatment leads to greater reductions in suicidality and self-harm than suicide-focused treatment alone.
Participants will be randomly assigned to receive 6 months of DBT plus CBT-I or to DBT alone and will complete research assessments measuring suicidal ideation, self-harm behavior and insomnia symptoms every four weeks over the course of the study, as well as one post-treatment follow-up assessment. Participants will also wear a device on their wrist (like a Fitbit or wristwatch) for 10 days following each assessment to collect data about their sleep.

结局指标
主要结局
Insomnia Severity Index (ISI)
时间窗: Baseline and change from baseline at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 36 weeks after the start of the DBT program.
The ISI (Morin, 1993) is a 7-item self-report questionnaire that measures insomnia symptoms on a 4-point scale. Total score ranges from 0-28, with a total score of \> 9 being validated as the optimal cutoff for a likely insomnia diagnosis.
Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire Junior (SIQ-JR)
时间窗: Baseline and change from baseline at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 36 weeks after the start of the DBT program.
The SIQ-JR (Reynolds 1987) is a 15-item self-report questionnaire that assesses suicidal thoughts on a 7-point scale (I never had this thought to almost every day). Scores range from 0 to 90, with a published clinical cut-off score of 31.
Suicide Attempt Self-Injury Interview and Count
时间窗: Baseline and change from baseline at 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24 and 36 weeks after the start of the DBT program.
Structured clinical interview that measures number, dates, method, intent and lethality of suicide attempts and non-suicidal self-injury episodes.
