“…Although we could not assess whether raising the cutoff‐point could have improved clinical utility by increasing specificity as previously suggested (Buelens et al, 2020 ; Muehlenkamp & Brausch, 2016 ), we did find that situating recency within the last month considerably improved the true negative rate. While the trade‐off in sensitivity might be unacceptable for more than 5 days self‐injured (i.e., 50% true positive rate), our results support suggestions from Ammerman et al ( 2019 ; 2021 ) that at least 1 day injured in the last month could balance sensitivity (i.e., 87%) and specificity (i.e., 77%) more appropriately than only considering days self‐injured within the last year. Besides better accounting for individuals' lived experience and their perception of their behavior, assessing self‐injury within the last month may also reduce recall failures associated with long periods of time passing between assessment and NSSI (Borschmann et al, 2017 ; Daukantaité et al, 2020 ).…”

Objective: This study examined the overlap between considering oneself to have stopped nonsuicidal selfinjury (NSSI) and the actual cessation of the behavior in terms of days self-injured in the last month and last year, and how these operationalizations are associated with constructs related to NSSI recovery. Methods: A cross-sectional survey including measures of coping, emotion dysregulation, psychological distress, general self-efficacy, and self-efficacy in resisting NSSI was answered by 144 adults aged 17-81 years (M age [SD] = 21.43 [7.32]). Results: Having self-injured for ≥5 days in the last year was overly inclusive of individuals who currently considered themselves as having stopped NSSI (39.02%). Considering oneself to have stopped NSSI was associated with better emotion regulation (Cohen's d = 0.45), and higher general self-efficacy and higher self-efficacy to resist NSSI (d = 0.59-0.64) than behavioral cessation.

Suicide: Nonsuicidal Self‐Injury

This entry introduces the complex and theoretically diverse concept of nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI). NSSI is defined as a form of self‐harm that does not aim for fatal outcome and must therefore be delimited from suicidal behavior with fatal intentions. Nevertheless, NSSI is considered a strong predictor for actual suicidal behavior. As a public health concern which affects adolescents in particular, NSSI is subject to efforts that aim at prevention and provision of help resources. Importantly, the media plays an integral role in the context of self‐harming behavior as it can have both detrimental and beneficial effects: on a continuum of effects, the media can (i) serve as a negative reinforcer promoting harmful behavior or (ii) act as a positive contributor by supporting favorable coping strategies and prevention. Among other determinants, such as intraindividual predisposition or susceptibility, the respective outcome largely depends on how NSSI is portrayed in the media. Thus, attention should be drawn to the role of the media in regard to NSSI – in terms of both research efforts and practical handling of NSSI content. In this, the focus is now largely on social media in particular, and algorithms and machine learning seem to be promising approaches.
