Core Tip	This systematic review explores the validity and reliability of implicit measures for suicide risk assessment (a clinical challenge). From 189 initial articles, 9 were included. The Death/Suicide Implicit Association Test and Suicide Stroop task were common tools. Results showed these measures are valid for assessing past and future suicidal thoughts/behaviors, with significant retrospective/prospective associations.
