Effect of the Four-Way Interaction Between Perceived Burdensomeness, Thwarted Belongingness, Capability for Suicide, and Hopelessness on Suicide Risk (H4/H7).

Note. k = number of samples. CI = confidence interval. ET = Egger’s Regression Intercept test, 2-tailed p-value is reported; significance indicates potential publication biases. n/a = data unavailable due to insufficient data. Trim&Fill = Duval’s Trim & Fill test, random effects estimates, Q-values, and the number of studies trimmed are reported. Refer to H4/H7 in the Meta-Analytic Approach Section. There were insufficient data to test the four-way interaction predicting suicide attempt history (H4); however, we obtained two effect sizes for the four-way interaction predicting suicide risk (H7).

TB = thwarted belongingness. PB = perceived burdensomeness. CS = capability for suicide. H = hopelessness. Risk = suicidal ideation and behavior.
