This study develops a predictive model of youth suicide attempts using clinical and cognitive data, analyzed with machine learning. Drawing on CAMH’s TAY Cohort, it evaluates cognitive control deficits and gender identity interactions. Results will inform suicide risk assessment and prevention strategies in youth mental health services.
