Dear colleagues,
My name is Ngọc Hân, and I am currently a graduate student in the Master of Applied Psychology program at Van Hien University, Vietnam. I am in the process of developing my thesis project, which focuses on the application of behavioral activation techniques in the treatment of self-injurious behavior among adolescents.
As part of my research, I am seeking reliable and valid assessment tools that evaluate non-suicidal self-injury or related behaviors. I would be grateful for any recommendations, resources, or guidance you could provide regarding relevant scales or measurement instruments.
Thank you very much for your time and support.
Best regards,
Ngọc Hân
- Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Assessment Tool (NSSI-AT): Developed by Cornell University, this tool assesses various forms of self-injury, including cutting, burning, and hitting oneself, along with motivations behind the behavior.
- Inventory of Statements About Self-Injury (ISAS): A questionnaire that evaluates both the types of self-harm behaviors and the psychological functions they serve, such as emotional regulation or self-punishment.
- Clinical Interviews & Psychological Assessments: Many professionals use structured interviews and broader mental health assessments to understand the underlying causes of self-harm and determine appropriate interventions
I sincerely thank you for your valuable insights, Professor. I am truly touched and deeply appreciative of the meaningful information you have shared, which is immensely helpful for both my research and clinical practice. I will continue to study this topic further. Thank you once again for your generosity and guidance.
