Suicide attempts are more prevalent in people with bipolar I disorder (BD-I) than in the general population. Most prior studies of suicide in BD-I have focused on separate emotion-related assays or clinician-administered scales, whereas a single, brief, and multidimensional battery of self-report measures has not yet been explored. Here, we utilized the NIH Toolbox Emotion Battery (NIHTB-EB) to assess various emotional measures, determine which were cross-sectionally associated with prior...

CONCLUSION: BD I could be identified with high accuracy in our relatively small sample by combining structural, functional, and diffusion-weighted imaging data within a single site but not generalize well to an independent replication sample. Future studies using harmonized imaging protocols may facilitate generalization of ML models.
