Title: The Effect of a Brief Psychological Intervention on Reducing Self-harm Repetition: Feasibility Study
Brief Summary: Recent research has focused on examining brief interventions for reducing self-harm, such as the volitional help sheet (VHS). The VHS is a theory-based psychological intervention. Two previous studies applying this tool for reducing self-harm repetition showed inconsistent results; one showed reduced subsequent self-reported suicidal ideation and behavior in patients presenting to hospital for self-harm, whilst the other showed no effect on the number of patients who re-presented to hospital with self-harm. The aim of this study is to investigate the feasibility of the VHS intervention amongst self-harm patients in Taiwan and explore its effect on self-harm repetition based on self-reported self-harm, hospital re-presentations with self-harm, and self-harm episodes from a nationwide self-harm registry. It is a two-phase study: first a qualitative study and second an exploratory randomized control trial. The first study is to interview people who self-harm about their perceptions about the VHS on the online platform, to inform the modification of VHS and the best way to intervene. The second is to examine the feasibility and effect of this intervention at the emergency department setting.
