“…In particular, suicide is emerging as a new and serious social problem among young Koreans. The suicide rate among Korean university students has increased by 60% over the past six years, and the number of university students who experience suicidal ideation is also increasing (Kim & Cha, 2018).…”

This study examines risk factors for university students' suicidal ideation based on a meta-analysis of research published in South Korea from 2004 to 2019. Risk factors included depression, life stress, parents' critical communication, and job stress. Publication bias and study-specific moderator variables were also examined. Depression had the largest effect size, followed by life stress, parents' critical communication, and job stress. Meta-regression analysis showed differences in the effect sizes for depression, parents' critical communication, and job stress according to publication year. The probability of publication bias was low. These findings can help to develop effective suicidal ideation prevention programs for university students. In particular, counselling centres should help intensively prevent and manage depression among university students. Furthermore, mental health services, such as education and counselling programs that address suicidal ideation, must be easily accessible by integrating the students' homes, schools, and communities.

“…Interestingly, the previous literature established that a few positive external (social) and internal (psychological) facets (indexed as sociopsychological constructs), i.e. , social support, self-resilience, belongingness, subjective well-being, mindfulness, positive self-appraisals and attributional style, optimism, emotional stability (ES), cohesiveness, and cognitive and coping flexibilities, had a linear negative association with suicidal behavior among nonclinical populations (Kim and Cha, 2018; Sher, 2019; Brailovskaia et al, 2020; Kato, 2022). However, it has been disputed whether each of these attributes of interest may indeed be interpreted as a suicidal resilience factor.…”

“…Considerable research has been conducted to identify the risk variables that triggered suicidal thoughts and behavior in the past few decades; nevertheless, suicidal intervention strategies concentrated on these risk factors have provided upsetting results, and a rising trend has been observed (Sher, 2019; Kessler et al, 2020). Moreover, the notion that only a very few individuals who encounter constant stress in daily life executed suicide demonstrated that other protective aspects should be taken into account to better comprehend suicidal psychopathologies, which have been investigated relatively less than risk variables (Kim and Cha, 2018; Siegmann et al, 2018). However, reinforcing strength-based interventions focused on protective factors rather than weakness-oriented approaches along with relocating the attention toward resilience to suicide might help in enlightening innovative suicide preventive strategies among high-risk groups of medical students.…”

Positive sociopsychological constructs and coping flexibility may be helpful for alleviating suicidal psychopathology, although relatively little research has examined this possibility among medical students. This survey aimed to investigate whether positive sociopsychological constructs and coping flexibility could buffer the negative impact of daily life stress and bolster the resilience to suicidal ideations and attempts among medical students. This cross-sectional model was based on a study of 787 Indian medical students (725 women and 62 men; mean age, 21.08 years; SD = 2.78; range, 19–37 years) who were asked to complete a battery of self-administered questionnaires. For the purpose of determining the independent and interaction impacts of potential variables of influence, hierarchical multiple linear regression models were used. The moderation analysis investigated that the association between daily life stress and suicidal ideation was buffered among the students having higher levels of positive mental health and coping flexibility, whereas this association was no longer significant at the highest level of positive mental health. Furthermore, the relationship between daily life stress and suicidal attempts continued to be buffered by above-average levels of coping flexibility, emotional stability (ES), and optimism. These findings represent that promoting positive mental health, coping flexibility, ES, and optimism may be a promising approach to mitigate suicidal thoughts and attempts in interventions for medical students at high risk. These modifiable moderating factors can be enhanced by empirically supported treatment and prevention efforts to bolster suicidal resilience.

“…Na mesma linha, o art.5, ao analisar os fatores de risco para ideação suicida, sugere associação entre a ideação suicida de estudantes universitários, e os fatores depressão, pertencimento e adaptação ao ambiente acadêmico. Os resultados deste estudo apontam ainda que o sentimento de pertencimento ao meio acadêmico foi capaz de predizer em até 37% a ideação suicida em estudantes universitários coreanos, ou seja, indivíduos com baixo sentimento de pertencimento estão em maior risco para o surgimento de ideação suicida (Kim & Cha, 2018).…”

Este artigo consiste em uma revisão de escopo que objetivou investigar os fatores de risco acadêmicos associados a ideação e tentativas de suicídio em estudantes universitários. Foram recuperados inicialmente 1901 estudos em setembro de 2020 em seis bases de dados (Pubmed, BVS, PsycINFO, Web of Science, Science Direct e Scopus). Após a aplicação dos critérios de inclusão e exclusão, restaram 10 estudos para análise. Os principais resultados sugerem a existência de três fatores de risco acadêmicos associados a ideação e tentativas de suicídio: 1) relacionamento social com pares; 2) relacionamento social com professores ou orientador; e 3) adaptação ao ambiente acadêmico. Observou-se que em ambientes universitários os estudantes são vulneráveis a experiências de estresse e frustração relacionadas com a falta de adaptação à nova rotina acadêmica. Além disso, a dinâmica de interação com os pares, professores ou orientadores pode gerar situações de sofrimento ou desconforto emocional, contribuindo para o surgimento de ideação e tentativas de suicídio. Conclui-se que as universidades devem proporcionar espaços de adaptação aos novos estudantes (e.g. centros de acolhimento e orientação psicológica, encontros de convivência social e cultural) e incentivar os professores e orientadores à postura acolhedora.
