“…To facilitate the clinical uptake of these promising developments, the RCTs should include data on NSSI and suicidality. Similarly, as emerging evidence demonstrates the feasibility of using technology to incorporate prevention into a stepped-care approach for these behaviors [e.g., 118 ], risk prediction models are warranted that consider multiple behaviors to develop an integrated approach in responding to NSSI and ED behaviors.…”
