TY - JOUR PY - 2021// TI - Clergy as suicide prevention gatekeepers JO - Journal of pastoral care and counseling A1 - Mason, Karen A1 - Geist, Monica A1 - Kuo, Richard A1 - Marshall, Day A1 - Wines, James D. Jr SP - 84 EP - 91 VL - 75 IS - 2 N2 - 801 U.S. Catholic, Jewish and Protestant clergy reported on their suicide gatekeeping activities. Using vignettes, they identified suicide risk and selected interventions for three risk levels. Two-thirds of the sample who provide counseling reported at least one contact from a suicidal person per year. Clergy were significantly more concurrent with experts in identifying risk and selecting interventions with high risk but deviated more from the experts with low and medium risk. Most reported needing more training.
