Abstract
Growth Mixture Modeling identified three classes of trajectories of depressive and suicidal symptoms over a sixteen-week comparative efficacy trial for 129 suicidal adolescents (ages 12-18): a) Non-Responders (15.8%), b) Good Responders (57.5%), and c) Slow Responders (26.7%). Baseline suicide ideation, MDD diagnosis, pessimism, NSSI, and perceived burdensomeness distinguished class membership.
