'Examining Clinicians' use of language in Assessing Suicide Risk'

Lead Applicant Name :
Lasantha Jayasinghe
Project Type :
Research
Approval Date :
09-Oct-2018

Lay Summary :
Clinicians might use more 'distancing' language such as a higher frequency of reported speech or third person pronoun use when a patient is deemed to be more at risk of suicide owing to their mental state. We will compare clinicians’ use of language in the electronic records for groups of patients who have made a suicide attempt compared to those who have not with the eventual aim of determining if this can identify patients at risk of suicide or self-harm.<br/>
