The electronic Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (eC-SSRS) is a validated, self-rated version of the C-SSRS designed to uniquely assess both suicidal behavior and ideation. Suicidal ideation is assessed at 5 distinct levels of increasing severity: * Level 1: Wish to be Dead * Level 2: Non-Specific Active Suicidal Thoughts * Level 3: Active Suicidal Ideation with Any Methods (Not Plan) without Intent to Act * Level 4: Active Suicidal Ideation with Some Intent to Act, without Specific Plan * Level 5: Active Suicidal Ideation with Specific Plan and Intent
