Resumo: Suicide is a serious public health problem and is among the top ten causes of death worldwide for all age groups. It is the third leading cause among 15-35-year olds. The main objective of this quasi-experimental, quantitative, and cross-sectional study was to compare the levels of suicidal ideation among college students (n = 50) and nonstudents (n = 51). Subjects were compared according to sex, age, place of residence, living arrangements, educational level, and occupational status using the Suicidal Ideation Questionnaire. The sample consisted of 101 individuals aged 18-25 years, Mean of 21.44 years and Standard Deviation of 2.43. The results showed higher levels of suicidal ideation among the non-college students. Statistically significant effects were found among the following variables: level of education, occupational status, living alone, and presence of anxiety disorder and/or depression. The findings of this study suggest the need for suicide prevention measures in order to reduce deaths by suicide and suicide attempt rate.

Está entre as dez principais causas de morte na população mundial em todas as faixas etárias e ocupa o terceiro lugar em jovens entre 15 e 35 anos. O presente estudo é quasi-experimental, quantitativo e transversal, e tem como principal objetivo comparar os níveis de ideação suicida entre estudantes universitários (n = 50) versus não universitários (n = 51). Os sujeitos foram comparados em função do sexo, idade, local de residência, se vivem acompanhados ou sozinhos, nível de escolaridade e estado ocupacional. O instrumento utilizado foi o Questionário de Ideação Suicida. A amostra foi constituída por 101 indivíduos com idades compreendidas entre 18 e 25 anos, com média de 21,44 anos e desvio-padrão de 2,43. Os resultados evidenciaram que os maiores níveis de ideação suicida encontram-se na população não universitária. Os efeitos estatísticos com significado foram encontrados nas comparações por escolaridade, estatuto ocupacional, viver sozinho e presença de perturbação de ansiedade e/ou depressão. Os resultados do estudo sugerem que sejam adotadas medidas de prevenção do suicídio de forma a reduzir não só a taxa letal, mas também o número de tentativas.Núcleo de Editoração - PUC-Campinas2023-03-21info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7889Psychological Studies; Vol. 33 No. 2 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; Vol. 33 Núm. 2 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)Estudos de Psicologia; v. 33 n. 2 (2016): Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)1982-0275reponame:Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)instacron:PUC_CAMPporhttps://periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br/estpsi/article/view/7889/5413Copyright (c) 2023 José VASCONCELOS-RAPOSO, Ana Rita SOARES, Filipa SILVA, Marcos Gimenes FERNANDES, Carla Maria Teixeira https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessVASCONCELOS-RAPOSO, JoséSOARES, Ana RitaSILVA, FilipaFERNANDES, Marcos GimenesTeixeira , Carla Maria2023-03-21T11:44:21Zoai:ojs.periodicos.puc-campinas.edu.br:article/7889Revistahttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudosPRIhttps://seer.sis.puc-campinas.edu.br/seer/index.php/estudos/oaisbi.ne_estpsi@puc-campinas.edu.br||estudosdepsicologia@puc-campinas.edu.br||psychologicalstudies@puc-campinas.edu.br1982-02750103-166Xopendoar:2023-03-21T11:44:21Estudos de Psicologia (Campinas) - Pontifícia Universidade Católica de Campinas (PUC-CAMPINAS)false
