• Main Predictions of the Interpersonal-Psychological Theory of Suicidal Behavior: Empirical Tests in Two Samples of Young Adults (2009, unknown): “In two studies of suicide notes, Joiner et al. (2002) showed that raters detected more expressions of burdensomeness (a) in the notes of people who had died by suicide versus those who had intended to die but survived and (b) in the notes of those who died by violent means versus those who died by…”
• Nonsuicidal Self-Injury, Suicidal Behavior, and Their Co-occurrence as Viewed Through the Lens of the Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (2012, background): “Consistent with the theory, associations of suicidal ideation with perceived burdensomeness (Joiner et al., 2002; Van Orden, Lynam, Hollar, & Joiner, 2006) and thwarted belongingness (Conner, Britton, Sworts, & Joiner, 2007) are well documented.”

(2002) studies used a different method to assess perceived burdensomeness than the one used in the current study (i.e., ratings versus self-report), but used a similar stimulus item to assess the construct (i.e., perceptions that loved ones would be better off).”

• Thwarted Belongingness and Perceived Burdensomeness: Construct Validity and Psychometric Properties of the Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire (2011, background): “…desire have supported the associations between these constructs and suicidal ideation and behavior (Davidson, Wingate, Rasmussen, & Slish, 2009; Joiner et al., 2002; Joiner, Hollar, & Van Orden, 2006; Joiner, Van Orden, Witte, & Rudd, 2009; Nademin et al., 2008; Van Orden, Lynam, Hollar, &…”
• The Interpersonal Theory of Suicide (2010, background): “Second, an examination of the content of suicide notes found higher levels of perceived burdensomeness in notes from individuals who died by suicide compared to notes from individuals who attempted but survived (Joiner et al., 2002).”
