This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) under CFDA 93.242 Mental Health Research Grants will fund a randomized controlled trial of a smartphone-delivered treatment targeting suicidal thoughts and behavior (STB). The award of $391,894 will support a study to evaluate the safety, acceptability, and efficacy of a classical conditioning-based intervention called Therapeutic Evaluative Condition for Suicide (TEC-S) that aims to increase suicide aversion. The study will randomize 60 adults with recent and frequent STB to receive either the active TEC-S intervention or an inactive control condition delivered via smartphone over 30 days. The primary outcome will be changes in suicide aversion, with secondary outcomes of reduced STB severity and incidence. Ecological momentary assessment will be used to measure STB during the treatment and follow-up periods. This project will generate data to support a future optimization trial of TEC-S for high-risk suicidal individuals.
