Study Summary
The goal of this study was to determine whether reading about others' experiences with suicide can help reduce suicidal thoughts. To investigate this issue, the investigators recruited users from an internet support community. The investigators randomized participants to two separate groups: a Treatment group and a Control group. Participants in the treatment group read one first-person narrative about suicide each day for 14 days, and answered questions before and after reading the narrative. Participants in the Control group answered questions once per day during the 14-day trial period and did not receive the narrative intervention until after the initial study ended. All participants completed a follow-up questionnaire two weeks after the end of the 14-day trial period.
