%X OBJECTIVE: The study was conducted to develop a theoretical model to comprehensively explain suicidal ideation in Korean college students by including resilience, belongingness, and college life adjustment in addition to depression and stress. DESIGN AND SAMPLE: This study was a descriptive survey with 291 college students. MEASURES: Structural equation modeling was used to the hypotheses on this study. <br><br>RESULTS: Belongingness and depression showed a statistically significant direct effect, and college life stress and belongingness showed a statistically significant indirect effect. Belongingness was the most influential, and all the predictors in combination had an explanatory power of 37% for suicidal ideation in college students. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest a model of suicidal ideation focused on perspective, protective factors; previous research provided a negative perspective with focus on risk factors for suicidal ideation. <br><br>FINDINGS can be used to develop diverse programs to decrease suicidal ideation in college students and help them to adjust to college life.<br><br>© 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
