  • Purpose: Screen for suicidal ideation in college students and adults

The ASIQ can be used during intake interviews or during treatment to reduce liability and take appropriate preventive action whenever there may be a risk of suicide. Endorsement of critical items alerts you immediately in case of serious suicidal ideation.


The ASIQ includes a 25-item self-report; items rated on a 7-point scale; and a built-in scoring key. Norms are based on 2,000 adults ages 18 years and older, including psychiatric outpatients, normal adults, and college students.


Internal consistency and test-retest reliability coefficients range from .96-.97 and .85-.95, respectively, in various samples.


The ASIQ yields a total score with a corresponding T score and percentile score. Comparing the total score to a cutoff allows you to identify individuals in need of further evaluation for suicide risk.


Results of several research studies support the ASIQ as a valid measure of suicidal ideation.


ASIQ Introductory Kit includes ASIQ Professional Manual and 25 Respondent Forms.
