Suicidal Ideation Among Children and Young Adults in a 24/7 Messenger-Based Psychological Chat Counseling Service

Elisabeth Kohls et al.

Summary: This study investigates the utilization behavior and user satisfaction of users contacting a German messenger-based chat counseling service regarding suicidal ideation. The results show that users experiencing suicidal ideation are satisfied with the counseling service, and there were no differences in satisfaction and the probability of recommending the service between users with and without suicidal ideation. However, further research is needed to assess the effectiveness of messenger-based interventions in preventing suicidal behavior in children, youths, and young adults.
