Abstract

Abstract: Objective To explore the mediating effect of meaning in life between psychological strain and suicidal behavior risk in college students. Methods A total of 1,574 college students from a university in Jinan were investigated by Psychological Strain Scale, Purpose in Life Test-Short Form and Suicidal Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised. Results A total of 244 college students were classified with suicidal behavior risk. The score of meaning in life was negatively correlated with the score of psychological strain and the score of suicidal behavior risk(r=-0.482, -0.297, both P<0.001), and the score of psychological strain was positively correlated with the score of suicidal behavior risk(r=0.335, P<0.001). Mediating effect test showed that meaning in life played a partial mediating role between college students psychological strain and suicidal behavior risk, and the mediating effect accounted for 25.12% of the total variance. Conclusion Reducing college students psychological strain and cultivating their meaning in life could reduce the risk of suicidal behavior.

Key words: College students, Psychological strain, Meaning in life, Suicidal behavior risk, Purpose in Life Test-Short Form
