Firearm Access Screening in Mental Healthcare: An Exploratory Study of the Role of Provider and Client Characteristics
OBJECTIVES: This study examined how mental healthcare providers' characteristics (e.g., firearm ownership) impact whether they screen for firearm access, and differences in reported screening frequency across clients' clinical presentations and demographics. METHODS: The sample included 311 mental healthcare providers (data collected 2023-2024). Providers indicated whether they screen for firearm access in their practice (yes/no), and those who r…
Frequency, recency, and variety of gun violence exposure: Implications for mental health and suicide among US adults
Frequency of Black and American Indian/Alaskan Native US Residents Screened for Firearm Access
Objective This study evaluates Black and AIAN individuals' self-reported history of being screened for firearm access by healthcare providers, and identifies factors that influence screening. Methods A cross-sectional, nationally representative survey of included 3015 Black and 527 AIAN adults in the US. Participants were recruited via probability-based sampling. Results Among Black participants, 13.1% and among AIAN participants, 18.4% reported …
Female military service members and veterans: Understanding treatment seeking behavior and previous suicide risk among suicide decedents
To examine the differences in treatment seeking behaviors, previous suicidal thoughts, previous suicide attempts, and disclosure of suicidal thoughts among female service members (SM)/Veteran suicide decedents who used a firearm and those who used another method. Data was acquired from the National Violent Death Reporting System which is maintained and monitored by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention. Data included in the present study …
Public Perception of Gun Violence-Related Headline Accuracy and the Credibility of Media Sources
The present study sought to determine the extent to which the message or messenger is more important for news media portrayal of gun violence prevention. Exploratory analyses also examined factors related to Fox News and MSNBC credibility. Participants (N = 3,500) were US adults matched to the 2010 US Census on several demographic variables. Two mock headlines were presented: "Gun violence is result of mental health problems" and "Storing firearm…
Defensive Behaviors During Covid-19 and the 2020–2021 Firearm Purchasing Surge: A Latent Class Analysis
Objective: This study examined the extent to which political beliefs and public health behaviors cluster together and define distinct groups of individuals and whether those groups differ on firearm purchasing behaviors. Methods: 6,404 US residents (Minnesota, n = 1,789; Mississippi, n = 1,418; New Jersey, n = 3,197) were recruited via Qualtrics panels. Participants were matched to 2010 census data. Results: Fit statistics determined a four-class…
Demographic differences in the type of firearm and location of bodily injury in firearm suicide decedents
This study describes the type of firearm used and location of bodily injury among demographic subgroups of suicide decedents. Data on those who died by suicide via firearm from the National Violent Death Reporting System ( N = 117,126) between the years 2003-2018 was utilized. A series of five logistic regression analyses examining the age of decedent, type of firearm, location of wound site, loaded vs. unloaded firearms, and locked vs. unlocked …
Understanding Risk and Implementing Data-Driven Solutions for Firearm Suicide
Each year, firearms account for half of all the suicide deaths in the U.S. Research has shown that, worldwide, the most effective way to prevent suicide is so-called means safety: making the tools and methods of suicide less accessible and less lethal. In the U.S., research has shown, time and again, that access to firearms increases the risk for suicide death, particularly when firearms are not stored safely. Means safety, therefore, could be a …
Demographic and Clinical Characteristics of Military Service Members Hospitalized Following a Suicide Attempt versus Suicide Ideation
Psychiatric hospitalization for a suicide attempt (SA), rather than suicide ideation (SI) alone, is a stronger risk indicator for eventual suicide death. Yet, little is known about demographic and clinical characteristics differentiating those admitted for SA versus SI. Understanding these differences has implications for assessment and treatment. A retrospective review of electronic medical records (EMRs) was performed on service members ( n = 9…
