Objective: The primary objective of this study was to delve into the intricate interplay between spiritual intelligence, neurotic personality, and differentiation concerning suicidal ideation among students.
Methods: The methodology employed in this research was of a descriptive nature, falling under the category of a survey study. The target population for this study encompassed all students residing in the city of Tabriz. A total of 250 students were carefully chosen to participate, constituting the sample size for this research endeavor. The selection process was meticulously carried out utilizing a random cluster sampling technique. To gather relevant data, instruments such as the Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSSI), NEO Five Factor Inventory (NEO-FFI), Spiritual Intelligence Self-Report Inventory (SISRI; King, 2008), as well as the Differentiation of Self Inventory (Skowron and Friedlander, 1998) were administered.
Results: The normality of the data distribution was assessed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test, while research hypotheses were scrutinized via the Pearson correlation test and multiple regression analysis. All computations were meticulously conducted using the SPSS version 18 software. The outcomes of the study unequivocally revealed a notable inverse correlation between spiritual intelligence and suicidal thoughts among students. Conversely, a noteworthy positive association was observed between neurotic personality traits and suicidal ideation in students. Furthermore, a substantial inverse relationship was identified between levels of differentiation and suicidal ideation among students.
Conclusions: Totally, approximately 40% of the variance in suicidal ideation among students was elucidated by the combined influences of spiritual intelligence, neurotic personality traits, and levels of differentiation.
