Just out!📢NSSI thoughts, urges, and self-efficacy to resist are highly dynamic—self-injury increases in the afternoon and peaks in the evening. These findings highlight the need for real-time interventions and the value of EMA for assessing risk moments outside the therapy room
In this cohort study of treatment-seeking individuals, nonsuicidal self-injury cognitions and behavior appeared to be dynamic over the short term. ja.ma/40exSPh @Gkiekens

I did a really enjoyable podcast interview on this study with Riva Stoudt for her podcast 'A Therapist Can't Say That'. Loved the chance to discuss these ideas with someone doing clinical work in the real world! intothewoodsportland.com/a-t…
