Abstract

Impaired cognitive function is a feature of suicidal behavior. It also might be considered a risk factor in adolescents with high vulnerability to commit suicide. Previous studies have suggested that some aspects of cognitive function improve after psychological treatment. However, to our knowledge, there are no studies that have evaluated the influence of psychological treatment on cognitive functioning in adolescents with suicidal behavior. The aim of this study was to examine changes on neuropsychological functioning in adolescents with suicidal behavior following a psychological treatment with DBT and supportive therapy (ST) compared with healthy control subjects.
