I am blessed to work with such a collaborative team at the UNC Charlotte Violence Prevention Center. In our 3 years, we have impacted suicide prevention, human trafficking, sexual violence prevention, and other areas. We appreciate any consideration you give to reposting and connecting with us.

Depends on the sample and spread of responses. Generally don’t make a continuous dv binary unless there’s already a cut score or the spread really makes it make sense.

I do use the SBQ-R and have published psychometrics on it, but it is begging for a wording update. Some lit, including my teams, treat item 4 as a proxy for intent (e.g., within the IMV model). That said, the SITBI-R items have been very useful, whereas psychometrics on the Columbia vary.
