abstract="OBJECTIVE To investigate the prevalence and influential factors of suicide risk among left-behind children in the rural areas of Jiangsu province. <br><br>METHODS Positive and Negative Suicide Ideation(PANSI) and Suicide Attitude Questionnaire(QSA) were administered to 961 primary and middle school children of grade 5 to 8(including 418 left left-behind children) selected with cluster sampling in a district of Nanjing city and a county of Yancheng city between June and July 2016. <br><br>RESULTS The score for suicide ideation of the left-behind children was significantly higher than that of non-left-behind children(23. 24 ±7. 38 vs. 21. 18±5.85)(t=-4. 83,P<0. 001);but there was no significant difference in suicide attitude between the two groups(87. 30 ± 9. 62 vs. 87. 82 ± 10. 13)(t = 0. 82,P > 0. 05). The years of parents' migration for working was a significant influential factor of suicide ideation among the left-behind children(P<0. 01);the suicide ideation was significantly influenced by gender,school grade,and whether being an only child among the non-left-behind children. School grade was a significant influential factors for suicide attitude among both left-behind children and non-left-behind children(both P<0.05). The suicide attitude was reversely correlated significantly with suicide ideation among left-behind children(r =-0. 22, P<0.001). <br><br>CONCLUSION Left-behind children are at a higher suicide risk than non-left-behind children. The findings suggest that the public should pay more attention to living condition and mental health of left-behind children.
