AB - The current study was aimed (a) to explore relationsamong problem solving, depression an d suicidal ideation and (b) to verify a hypothesis that depression would mediate the relationship between problem solving and suicidal ideation. An adolescent sample of 378 male and female high school students participated in the present study. They self-reported their levels of problem solving, depression and suicidal ideation using three psychological instruments, Problem Solving Inventory (PSI), Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) and Scale for Suicidal Ideation (SSI). The results showed PSI was significantly and positively correlated with depression or suicidal ideation. Also, Problem Solving Confidence (PSC), one of the three subscales of PSI was positively associated with suicidal ideation or depression. Depression, as one of the strongest pre-dictors, explained 39.3% of the variance of suicidal ideation even after controlling for problem solving. Most importantly, SEManalyses confirmed a full mediation model of depression rather than a partial model in relation of problem solving and su icidal ideation. The present findings suggest significance of and implications for intervention of suicidal behavior in adolescents. Study limitations were also discussed.
