Abstract:
The study's purpose was to examine the variables related to suicidal ideation to identify the factors that may reduce the phenomenon. The study offers an innovative model that examines the combined effect of personality characteristics among populations with high suicidal ideation and their coping strategies with suicide ideation. Participants were 423 divorced parents, 275 men, and 148 women, who had been divorced for an average of seven years. It was found that the relationship between personality characteristics and suicidality was not direct for the most part, but was mediated by coping strategies, and that some combinations of personality characteristics and coping strategies were associated with higher suicidal ideation. Awareness of how the various personality characteristics and coping strategies affect suicidal ideation may be essential for the care provider. It may lead to a reduction in suicide rates through adapted intervention processes.
