Abstract
Cognitive distortion has been proposed as one of the endophenotypes of suicidal behavior, and a therapeutic target in the
suicidal patient approach. This article provides a systematic review of the existing literature testing relations between cognitive
distortion and suicidality, across various diagnostic and demographic populations, using different kinds of neurocognitive tasks,
together with imaging or electrophysiological test to measure the alteration of brain regions during the neurocognitive tasks.
Cognitive distortion is an important factor in the generation process of suicidal behavior and should be a promising target in
the prevention and treatment of suicidal behavior. Future study needs to pay attention to the consistency of samples including
psychiatric diagnosis, time period between the last suicide attempt (SA) and investigation day, and the mechanisms how the genes
related with suicidal behavior together with environmental factors alter the risk of suicidal behavior through their influence on
cognitive distortion..
