Katherine M. Bender; Kendel M. E. Jester
Journal of Student Affairs Research and Practice, v61 n1 p56-71 2024
Since 2010, suicidal ideation and suicide attempts among college students have increased. Student affairs (SA) practitioners may not have received sufficient training to handle issues regarding student suicidality. Results of a survey of SA professionals across the United States assessing their knowledge, opinions, and actions taken around student suicide indicate that formalized training is needed for suicidal warning signs and action plans for suicidal students.
