Jane Doe
Self-Screening Report (MBHS 3.0)
SUICIDE RISK CLASSIFICATION
Suicide Risk Category: LowThe MBHS suicide risk algorithm sorts cases into three categories: Low, Mild, or At Least Moderate. The Low risk category means that, statistically, you do not appear to need support regarding suicidal thoughts or urges. These feelings can change fairly quickly, though. If such thoughts or feelings do occur, it is important to get in touch with a therapist if one is available, or your primary healthcare provider. The 988 Lifeline is free, confidential, and always available.
Your Results at a Glance
The MBHS evaluates 9 distinct areas of psychological functioning. Scores are shown as percentile ranks compared to a general medical outpatient population.
50th percentile = Average range
> 66th percentile = May warrant professional attention

Scale Interpretations
Somatic and Cognitive Dysfunction
Somatization - Not Elevated
The Somatization scale measures the extent to which psychological issues may be contributing to, or impacted by, bodily and physical symptoms; this is a two-way street.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting minimal contribution of psychological factors to your experience and expression of physical symptoms.
Cognitive Issues - Not Elevated
The Cognitive Issues scale measures problems in attention, concentration, distractibility, and memory. These problems can range from mild to more serious, and they can be associated with a wide range of causal factors and other symptoms.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting that your cognitive functioning is generally within the normal range.
Internalizing Dysfunction
Demoralization - Elevated
The Demoralization scale is a measure of general emotional distress, a range of symptoms and reactions most people would associate with depression. These may include feeling miserable, unhappy, sad, hopeless, helpless, inadequate, or ineffective. While innate dispositional issues may be involved, external circumstances (relationship issues, job issues) may play an important causal role as well.
Your score on this scale is elevated, suggesting a level of general negative and pervasive mood that is likely interfering in your life. It is important to work with your care provider to explore possible causal factors, which will facilitate the development of a treatment plan.
Anhedonia - Elevated
The Anhedonia scale is a measure of the inability to experience joy or pleasure in your life, relationships, or activities. It may be that activities you used to really enjoy are no longer interesting or attractive to you. Anhedonia is often associated with social withdrawal.
Your score on this scale is elevated, suggesting a lack of joy or pleasure in your life. Your care provider can further assess this issue and help you to develop a plan of action. While anhedonia is generally considered to be an aspect of depression, it may warrant specific treatment strategies in itself.
Anxiety - Not Elevated
The Anxiety scale measures a generally familiar characteristic of nervousness, fear, worry, or agitation. Anxiety is an important human characteristic that alerts us to danger, and most people experience various levels of anxiety across the course of their lives, days, and hours.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting that your experience of anxiety-related symptoms is within the normal range.
Suicidal Ideation - Not Elevated
The Suicidal Ideation scale screens for thoughts about suicidal thoughts and death. It should be noted that vague, transient thoughts about suicide occur from time to time with many of us and may not reflect an urgent level of concern, though they should be considered as a risk factor, among others.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting that suicidal ideation is not an immediate, urgent concern. That said, it would be a good idea to share with your care provider any related thoughts that you are experiencing.
Externalizing Dysfunction
Activation - Not Elevated
The Activation scale screens for excessive energy, excitation, and mood instability.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting a generally normal level of energy fluctuations and mood variations.
Disconstraint - Not Elevated
The Disconstraint scale screens for one's ability to control impulses, maintain self-control, and exercise self-management.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, suggesting generally normal levels of executive functioning and self-control.
Substance Use Problems - Not Elevated
The Substance Use scale is a short, screening-level measure of possibly maladaptive substance use.
Your score on this scale is not elevated, which suggests that substance use may not currently be a problematic issue in your life.
