Objectives This study was conducted in order to explore the prevalence of suicidal behaviorand the risk or protecting factors. In addition, childhood trauma, school violence, and social supportwere hypothesized to have an association with suicidal behavior. Methods Data were collected by self-report questionnaire from 1219 students selected frommiddle schools in Guri-city, Korea. The students were asked to complete self-questionnaires andsociodemographic variables were collected for identification of factors associated with suicidalbehavior. Results The prevalence of suicidal attempt was 1.1% (0.6%, 1.3%) from the total sample. Meaningful predictors of suicidal ideation were female, low socioeconomic status, low self-esteem,emotional abuse, neglect, delinquency, perpetration of school violence, family support,and friend support, in addition to the significant effect of depressive mood. In the case of suicidalattempt, female, low socioeconomic status, or delinquency showed a significant incremental effect,in addition to the explaining variance of depressive mood and suicidal ideation. Conclusion Childhood experience should be dealt with, and school violence should be controlledin order to modulate mood disturbance and pessimistic ideation, which can block thechannel to suicidal attempt. In addition, development of strategies for management of depressionand delinquency is needed for prevention of suicidal attempt.
