Evaluating chaplaincy utilization in a suicide-risk-stratified Veterans Affairs patient sample
Although chaplaincy is a key part of the Department of Veterans Affairs' (VA) healthcare services, few studies have investigated how classified suicide risk impacts this service utilization. Filling this gap, this study evaluates utilization patterns in a suicide-risk-stratified national sample of VA patients who died by suicide (cases), as well as suicide risk-matched patients (controls) who did not die by suicide in 2017-2018. Given overdispers…
Using natural language processing to inform targeted rural and urban Hispanic U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs suicide prediction models
Objective: Rural Hispanic Veterans experience elevated suicide rates when compared to urban counterparts. Group differences remain poorly understood. This study evaluates a rurality-stratified sample of Hispanic Veterans Affairs (VA)-patients, leveraging unstructured electronic health record (EHR) data to refine population-specific suicide risk prediction metrics. Method: The study utilized a rural and urban Hispanic VA-patient dataset, including…
Contrasting narratives
This online randomised controlled study evaluates benefits associated with structured topic-focussed narrative writing tasks versus unstructured narrative writing tasks, monitoring to what extent tasks impact well-being, psychopathology and satisfaction. Participants were randomised to structured topic-focussed or unstructured narrative writing conditions. Structured condition consisted of Conflict Analysis (CA), a self-guided narrative-based the…
The role of race in rural‐urban suicide disparities
PURPOSE: To assess the role that race-ethnicity plays in modifying the observed rural-urban disparity in suicide among Veteran Health Administration (VHA) users. METHODS: We performed a retrospective cohort study of 10,737,864 VHA users between 2003 and 2017, using cross-linked VHA medical records and National Death Index mortality data to assess longitudinal race-stratified rural-urban differences in age- and sex-adjusted annual suicide rates. W…
