Abstract: Using 14-year longitudinal data, this study examined predictors of maintained absence of suicidal ideation among 236 adolescents exposed to suicide loss. School connectedness significantly increased odds of maintaining freedom from suicidal thoughts over time. Findings underscore the protective role of school-based support and demographic factors in suicide bereavement outcomes.
