Abstract
Persons diagnosed with schizophrenia are at increased risk for suicide and self-harmful behavior. It is currently estimated that between 20% and 40% of individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia will attempt suicide during their lifetime. Despite the prevalence of suicide in this population, no research to date has focused on the development of standardized methods for assessing suicide vulnerability in this high-risk population. This article describes the development of the Interview for Suicide in Schizophrenia (ISIS), a semistructured interview for the assessment of suicide in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia. Preliminary data describing the instrument's psychometric properties are presented. Transcripts from an administration of the ISIS are then presented to illustrate the administration of this interview. Appendix A includes a copy of the ISIS-Lifetime.
