Higher SBQ-R scores indicate greater suicide-risk signal and support immediate structured clinical risk evaluation.
Use in supervised clinical screening contexts where concise suicide-risk triage support is needed.
SBQ-R is self-reported and should never replace direct safety interviewing, collateral information, or emergency escalation when acute risk is suspected.
For related assessments, see C-SSRS Screener, PHQ-9 and GAD-7.
