abstract="The Suicide Opinion Questionnaire (SOQ) has been employed in a variety of settings as a measure of attitudes toward suicidal behavior. However there has been a lack of consensus across these studies with regard to the underlying factor structure of the measure. In addition there has been little empirical information reported in the literature regarding the scale's reliability. This article presents a psychometric investigation of the 8-factor clinical model of the SOQ as representing the most appropriate interpretive model for the SOQ. Factor-analytic and internal consistency reliability results failed to support the hypothesized 8-factor model. An alternative factor scheme and suggestions for future research on the SOQ are discussed.",
