Study Summary
The efficacy of cognitive processing therapy (CPT) for reducing the symptoms of posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) across populations including military personnel and veterans is well supported. CPT also contributes to significant and rapid reductions in suicide ideation among people diagnosed with PTSD, although available evidence suggests this effect decays over time. Studies also show that approximately 1 in 6 people who begin CPT without suicide ideation will subsequently report suicidal thoughts at some point during or soon after completing treatment. Research focused on improving CPT's effects on suicide risk is therefore warranted. The primary aim of this study is to determine if the integration of a crisis response plan (CRP)--an empirically-supported procedure for reducing suicide ideation and attempts--can lead to faster reductions in suicide ideation among acutely suicidal veterans receiving CPT and prevent the development of suicide ideation among veterans who begin CPT without suicide ideation.
Primary Outcome
Suicide ideation will be measured using the Scale for Suicide Ideation, an empirically-supported self-report scale that assesses the intensity of suicide-related thoughts, urges, intentions, and behaviors. Scores range from 0 to 38, with higher scores indicating more severe suicide ideation.
