SPSS ( Ver.21)was used for descriptive statistics analysis and AMOS(Ver.18.0)was used for causality verified t hrough analysis of structural equation model. The main result of this study is as follows. First, job search stress was positively related t o menta l health an d sui cide behavior of college students. Second, ego-resilience has negative effects on college students' menta l health an d sui cide behavior. Third, the mediating effect of ego-resilience on the relationship between job search stress, mental health and suicide behavior of college students is significant.
