Predictors and moderators of recurring self-harm in adolescents participating in a comparative treatment trial of psychological interventions.
This study compared outcomes for treatment of adolescents who have engaged in self-harm including suicide attempts and nonsuicidal self-injury. This randomized controlled tiral compared results with dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) to treatment with individual/group supportive therapy (IGST). 173 adolescents were randomized to receive 6 months of DBT or IGST. Assessments were made at baseline, midtreatment (3 months), and end of treatment at 6 months using the Suicide Attempt and Self –Injury Interview. Overall, DBT showed better rates of improvement than IGST. These was especially true of adolescents with higher levels of emotion dysregulation and parental psychopathology.

Assessing the economic impact of paternal involvement: a comparison of the generalized linear model versus decision analysis trees.
The authors illustrated a methodological comparison of decision analysis modeling and generalized linear modeling (GLM) techniques using a case study that assesses the cost-effectiveness of potential father involvement interventions. They found that lack of paternal involvement was associated with higher rates of preterm birth, small-for-gestational age, and infant morbidity and mortality, concluding that healthcare costs could be significantly reduced through enhanced father involvement during pregnancy.
