 note = {application/pdf, Gratitude has received attention as a protective factor that contributes to suicide prevention, and several studies have shown that gratitude intervention in hospitalized patients has a suicide prevention effect. We conducted a gratitude intervention for suicidal internet users, and examined the feasibility and effectiveness of the intervention. This is a single-arm study of gratitude intervention ("counting blessings") among Japanese internet users with high suicidal ideation (N = 225). The experiment consisted of a baseline period of approximately 4 weeks and an intervention period of approximately 4 weeks. The main factor measured was suicidal ideation. The dropout rate was 16.5% during the baseline period and 24.5% during the intervention period. Commitment to gratitude intervention was significantly associated with reduced suicidal ideation, after controlling for mean suicidal ideation in the baseline period and other demographic variables. Gratitude intervention has the potential to develop into a suicide prevention tool that can be used by suicidal internet users who do not necessarily have access to psychiatric care., 研究ノート},
