Core Tip	Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) in adolescents is difficult to identify early using self-report measures alone. This study developed and internally validated a prediction model integrating functional near-infrared spectroscopy prefrontal activation indicators with multidimensional neuropsychological assessments. Reduced left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex activation, emotional non-acceptance, childhood emotional neglect, motor impulsivity, and interpersonal stress were identified as independent predictors of NSSI. The nomogram-based model demonstrated good discrimination, calibration, and clinical utility, providing an objective and practical tool for early risk identification and stratified intervention in adolescent NSSI.
