Such research shows that individuals with suicidal thoughts or behaviors have less positive beliefs/expectations about their ability to survive and cope with life. Interestingly, SCB was the only RFL subscale rated lower among hospitalized single-car accident drivers, compared with an accident-free control group. Although cases and controls did not differ on self-reported suicidal risk, singlecar accident drivers reported more impactful negative life events and reported being tired of living more often than controls presenting to the Emergency Department in Rome, Italy, suggesting that the accident may have been contemplated as a solution to their problems (Pompili, Girardi, Tatarelli, & Taterelli, 2006). Although these results are from a study conducted in Italy, and caution must be exercised when generalizing the findings to U.S. samples, these findings are consistent with those findings from a U.S. psychiatric sample, which demonstrated that patients who viewed suicide as a solution to their problems reported lower SCB RFL (Linehan et al.,1983).
