Abstract
In recent years, suicide rates among school students have been steadily increasing, accompanied by a progressive decline in the age at which individuals engage in suicidal behaviors. Notably, suicidal ideation represents a critical risk factor in suicide prevention. The present study investigates the cause of suicidal ideation in school students by examining the influence of psychological characteristics and school-related stressors. A survey was distributed to 37,586 primary and secondary school students in Northeast China which access the status of depression, happiness, school-related stress, and suicidal ideation among school students. Latent profile analysis (LPA) identified four mental health profiles: Complete Mental Health, Vulnerable, Symptomatic but Content, and Troubled. Network analysis has identified significant positive correlations between suicidal ideation and school stress, particularly bullying, exam failures, and academic decline. These findings suggested that tailored mental health strategies should be used to promote well-being and prevent suicide in school students.
期刊介绍:
Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
