ABSTRACT
Objective@#To examine the associations between suicide and self-injury behavior with psychological adaptability of college students, so as to provide the basic information for prevention of suicide and self-injury behavior.@*Methods@#A sample of 825 college students completed a self-report questionnaire that measured sociodemographic characteristics, anxiety, depressive symptoms, resilience, self-compassion, and forgiveness.@*Results@#Among 825 college students, the prevalence rates of suicidal ideation, suicidal plan, suicidal preparation, and suicidal action were 9.9%, 3.5%, 2.5%, 1.8% respectively. The rate of self-injury was 11.8%. Compared with the group with low scores of forgiveness dimension, high score of forgiveness was the protective factor of suicidal psychological behavior (OR=0.26) and self-injury (OR=0.31) (P<0.05). Compared with the score of Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale in each scale of mental resilience, low score was the risk factor of self-injury (OR=2.11), while high score was the protective factor of suicidal mental behaviors (OR=0.51) (P<0.05). Compared with the middle scores of the self-compassion scale and hearland forgiveness scale, the low scores were the risk factors for suicidal psychological behavior (OR=1.66, 2.28), while the high scores were the protective factors for suicidal psychological behavior (OR=0.33, 0.44) and self-injury (OR=0.35, 0.39) (P<0.05).@*Conclusion@#Psychological resilience, self-compassion and forgiveness are significantly correlated with suicide and self-injury, suggesting that colleges and universities should pay close attention to the mental health status of college students and help them reduce the incidence by improving their self-psychological adjustment ability.
