Summary

This study looks at how teenage girls at high risk for suicidal thoughts react to social threats, like feeling left out. Researchers want to see if these reactions affect how connected they feel to others day-to-day and their risk for suicidal thoughts over time. One hundred girls aged 12-17 will complete brain tasks, daily smartphone surveys, and follow-up questionnaires for 6 months. The goal is to understand why some teens develop suicidal thoughts and behaviors, which could help prevent them in the future.
