Background and Aims: Our goal was to develop an online questionnaire to survey the prevalence of suicidal behavior.
Methods:We developed a questionnaire with 51 variables and proceeded with validations. Validations were performed using face validity, content validity, and construct validity. Reliability was performed by test−rest.Results: The face validity was 1.0 and the content validity was 0.91. The exploratory factor analysis got Kaiser−Meyer−Olkin = 0.86 and extracted one principal factor.The confirmatory factor analysis demonstrates root mean square error of approximation = 0.000 and comparative fit index = 1.000. The test−retest had an intraclass correlated coefficient of 0.98.
Conclusion:The adequate development questionnaire was validated, and we have an instrument to survey suicide behaviors during the pandemic time.Patient or Public Contribution: The general population of Marília voluntarily responded to the questionnaire, as well as patients from the principal investigator's office.

The test-retest had an intraclass correlated coefficient of 0.98. Conclusion: The adequate development questionnaire was validated, and we have an instrument to survey suicide behaviors in the pandemic time.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
