Study Summary

Patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=60) will be randomized to receive remote-PST or remote-supportive psychotherapy. We will assess problem-solving deficits through self-report, objective neuropsychological assessment and caregiver report. We have used an adaptive design so that if there is strong evidence for target engagement, we will continue with the trial as a fully powered clinical trial (i.e., the end of the current proposal will act as the interim assessment) to the determine the efficacy of remote PST for patients with chronic pain and moderate suicide risk (n=190) to improve suicide outcomes.

Primary Outcome

The Social problem-solving inventory - patient report measures problem-solving that is sensitive to change. In clinical research, the Social problem-solving inventory - patient report has been successfully used to elicit meaningful self-appraisals. The questionnaire is 52 items long. We will use the total score. Scores range from 0-100 with higher scores equaling better problem-solving.
