Attribute agreements reflect the comparison of the NLP tool output to the gold standard set of manually annotated documents. annotations are document level for suicidality and mention-level for self-harm. The results from the study that developed and evaluated the suicidality tool reported 0.58–0.72 precision, 0.70–0.87 for recall and 0.69–0.75 F1-score35 and the results from the study that developed and evaluated the self-harm tool reported 0.88–0.96 precision, 0.88–0.96 recall and 0.88–0.96 F1 score.40
