How to Use This Test

Appropriate for use by psychologists, licensed social workers, and licensed counsellors in outpatient and inpatient mental health facilities, juvenile justice evaluations, and school settings. The ISO-30 assessment can help:

  • Identify adolescents at risk for attempting suicide

  • Facilitating objective communication with the family or other counselling professionals

  • Measure abatement of suicidal symptoms after an adolescent has been hospitalised

 Key Features

  • The test’s brevity helps minimise test-taking resistance.

  • Results help alert psychologists and counsellors to the early signs of an adolescent’s suicidal tendencies, providing the opportunity for earlier intervention.

  • An adolescent normative base allows more relevant comparisons than tests with norms that include adults.

Scales

Helps measure a broadly-defined construct of hopelessness using the total score from the 30 items. Suicide ideation is assessed by 6 critical items within those 30 items. The total score and the critical item score help determine overall suicide risk classification (high, moderate, low).

Report Option

Adolescent Profile Report
This report includes the overall risk classification based on the total and critical item scores. Suggestions on how to manage the adolescent are based on the risk classification. Such information can be used in intervention planning and in communicating with parents and insurance providers about treatment decisions. The report also lists critical item responses and omitted items for clinicians to review in follow-up discussions with patients.
