Abstract

SEASA (self-efficacy to avoid suicidal action) was tested as a mediator between suicide-related coping (SRC) and suicidal ideation (SI) (N = 211, Mage = 28.66). Participants completed assessments of hopelessness, SEASA, SRC, and SI severity. SRC predicted lower SI through SEASA, highlighting SEASA’s unique protective role in reducing SI.
