The conceptualization and assessment of non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) has varied over the years. Clinical knowledge about NSSI depends on the evaluation and the sample investigated. However, the majority of the reviews on this subject do not have Spanish-speaking samples. This study aims to review the concept and clinical assessment of NSSI in the Spanish-speaking population from a comprehensive point of view. Through a systematic review, including the gray literature, 8 validated instruments were found in Spanish-speaking samples. These instruments are described in terms of their development, format, the characteristics that they measure, and their clinical and psychometric applicability. The majority are adaptations for community adolescents, and Mexicans stand out in terms of creation and adaptations. Although they have clinical potential, these instruments have not been suf?ciently proven for NSSI intervention. Finally, Spanish-speaking NSSI evaluation and possible improvements are discussed.
