Interviewers' notes about deliberate self-harm (Questions H22-H24)You will only ask these questions if you haven't already asked about similar things in question H18. This means that you only get to ask questions H22 to H24 when the child has not recently been very miserable or irritable, and when the child has not recently lost interest in favourite activities.Parents and young people are generally very willing to answer questions on deliberate self-harm, even though, in some cases, they are initially taken aback by the questions. It is important to take your time over this section, to thank informants for answering the questions and to help them to orientate themselves back into the rest of the interview by explaining what the next few questions are about. The pre-amble to the next section will help you to do this. Last modified : 05/09/09 | ||
