A systematic review and narrative synthesis of prevalence rates, risk and protective factors for suicidal behavior in international students

“…In terms of prevalence rates, one study found that 46.0% of students presenting at a psychiatric emergency clinic reported suicidal ideation in the past week, measured by the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) (24). The proportions of students endorsing suicidal ideation in the past two weeks were 28.6% (22) and 23.4% (32) when measured by item 9 from the Patient Health Questionnaire-9, and 21.8% when measured by the Modified Scale for Suicide Ideation (41,42). According to one study, 6-month prevalence of suicidal ideation was 11.2%, measured by the C-SSRS (26).…”
