Intervention: Assessment and identification of suicide risk predictors to inform prevention strategies
Who it was tested with: 262 male incarcerated youth aged 18-35 years in a Borstal Training Institution in Kaduna, Nigeria.
Experience from people who deliver programmes: stories, case studies and lessons learned. Valuable for understanding how and why, and for spotting what to test next, but not a measure of effect.
"This cross-sectional study was conducted at the Borstal Training Institution in Kaduna, North-western Nigeria between March 2018 and June, 2018." The study identifies risk factors associated with suicide among incarcerated youth but does not test the effectiveness of prevention strategies; it calls for their incorporation without evaluating outcomes.
Cross-sectional design prevents determination of causality. Single facility and all-male sample limit generalizability. The study does not evaluate the effectiveness of any prevention intervention.
