abstract="OBJECTIVE: To identify the predictive ability of the three-dimensional psychological pain scale (TDPPS) on suicide risk among MDD patients as compared to impulsivity, depression, hopelessness, psychache and acquired capability for suicide, and to determine the cut-off point of TDPPS in the identification of those at risk for suicide. METHOD: The sample comprised 137 depressed outpatients who were divided into subjects with a history of suicidal attempt (SA, N = 31) and those without such history (NSA, N = 106). All participants completed the questionnaires to evaluate interested variables. Broad sociodemographic and clinical variables were analyzed by using hierarchical and logistic regression analysis and Receiver Operating Characteristic curve analysis. RESULTS: TDPPS, especially pain avoidance subscale displayed superior performance in accurately identifying suicide attempt compared with other measurements. The appropriate cut-off point was 58 for the TDPPS. CONCLUSIONS: TDPPS may be an effective screening scale for detecting depressed patients at high suicidal risk.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
