In this episode of PRIM&R's podcast, "Research Ethics Reimagined," we explore the ethical and methodological complexities of suicide and self-harm research with Matthew Nock, PhD, the Edgar Pierce Professor of Psychology at Harvard University and former chair of the Harvard IRB. Dr. Nock discusses how research demonstrates that asking about suicide does not increase risk, the importance of IRB-researcher collaboration, and the challenges of real-time monitoring and intervention with high-risk participants. He shares insights from developing consensus guidelines on ethical conduct of suicide research and emphasizes the critical need for advancing this often-stigmatized field of study.
