Slipping through the cracks: The critical role of school principals in addressing and responding to nonsuicidal self‐injury among adolescents
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract Objective The responsibility of implementing nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) policy falls largely on school principals, yet few have received training regarding adolescent NSSI. Understanding principals' perceptions and roles in responding to NSSI among their students is essential to determining how best to address and reduce NSSI within school settings. Method Principals and deputy principals ( n = 63) completed self‐report questionnaires. Interviews were also conducted with 24 respondents. Results Most principals were involved in the response to student reports of NSSI; however, few had received any training on appropriate responses to NSSI. Barriers to responding effectively were a lack of training as well as resources in the community and school. Conclusion Schools may benefit from more extensive and direct training about appropriately addressing and responding to NSSI within the school setting and an NSSI‐specific policy with clearly outlined roles for principals and other school staff.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
