Post date: Mar 23, 2018 2:57:01 PM

In a new paper, Rory O'Connor and Olivia Kirtley provide their latest thinking on the Integrated Motivational-Volitional Model (IMV) of suicidal behaviour including some refinements of the model since its original exposition in 2011 (see Figures 1 & 2, below).  They describe the theoretical origins of the IMV model, the key premises underpinning the model, empirical tests of the model and future research directions.
