Previous studies in self injurious behavior based on self-report have severe limitations in predicting and explaining self injurious behavior. To overcome the limitation of self-report and improve risk assessment, this study seeks more objective markers of suicidal risk via a computerized behavioral test such as the Implicit Association Test(IAT) which measures implicit associations. Studies measure implicit associations organized into suicidal behavior(suicide attempt) and non-suicidal self injurious behavior(NSSI) category. Implicit measures of self injurious behavior-relevant associations were consistent with hypothesis for the existence of behavior. Therapeutic interventions affected implicit measures for self injurious behavior. Implicit measures had incremental predictive value for certain self injurious behaviors. Limitations with implicit measures are discussed and future study direction are suggested.
