Table 2.

Distribution of visits, people, and events using visit-level and person-level splits for training and test sets

All development data Visit-level split Person-level split
Training Testing Training Testing
Number of visits 1,518,968 987,329 531,639 987,038 531,930
   Number of visits with event 10,171 6,614 3,557 6,638 3,533
   Event rate (per 1,000 visits) 6.7 6.7 6.7 6.7 6.6
Number of people 207,915 180,508 141,968 135,144 72,771
   Number of people with any event 1,949 1,669 1,271 1,278 671
   Event rate (per 1,000 people) § 9.4 9.2 9.0 9.5 9.2
Number of unique events §§ 2,444 2,061 1,517 1,603 841
 Number of unique events occurring in both training and testing sets n/a 1134 (46%) 0 (0%)

For the visit-level training/testing split, the sum of the number of people, people with any event, and unique events across the training and test sets will be greater than the number of people, people with any event, and unique events in the combined dataset because visits from the same person (or associated with the same event) may appear in both training and test sets.

Number of people with one or more visits with a suicide attempt within 90 days.

§

Event rate is calculated as the proportion of people with any 90-day suicide attempt x 1,000.

§§

Number of unique events may include multiple events per person if separate suicide attempts occurred in the 90-days following a visit in the development dataset.
