abstract="OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the main prediction of the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (IPTS): 3-way-interaction of perceived burdensomeness (PB), thwarted belongingness (TB), and acquired capability (AC) for the prediction of suicidal behavior in a representative population sample. <br><br>METHOD: A total of 2513 participants completed measures of suicidal behavior, TB, PB, acquired capability (AC-FAD), and symptoms of depression and anxiety. <br><br>RESULTS: The two-way-interaction of TB and PB, and the three-way interaction of TB, PB and AC-FAD predict suicidality. LIMITATIONS: Given the cross-sectional nature of the data, conclusions on causality should be handled carefully. <br><br>CONCLUSION: The main prediction of the IPTS has been proven in a general population sample.<br><br>Copyright © 2017 Elsevier B.V.
