Abstract
Background: The rate of suicide of adolescents is recently significantly increasing in South Korea. Suicide is the
first leading cause of death of adolescents aged 15 to 19 years in South Korea and the mortality rate due to suicide
of adolescents is 8.9 per 100,000. The aims of this study is to investigate factors that affect suicidal ideation
through inventory and scale.

Methods: A questionnaire was conducted to 820 high school students in a city, and 776 subjects who finished
questionare were included in this study. Suicidal ideation, school bullying, excessive sexual thought and family
conflict were checked by adolescent mental health and problem behavior screening questionnaire-II
(AMPQ-II). Internet addiction degrees and depression was evaluated by internet addiction scale (IAS) and
Beck's depression inventory (BDI), respectively.

Results: AMPQ-II, IAS, BDI, school bullying, suicidal ideation, and family conflict were closely related to each
other. Binary logistic analysis showed that victims of school bullying (odds ratio [OR], 2.3; 95% confidence
Interval [CI], 1.439-3.816), AMPQ-II high risk (OR 4.9; CI 2.546-9.433) and depression of all grade (OR 1.8
[mild], 2.2 [moderate], 6.4 [severe]) were related to suicidal ideation.

Conclusions: Presence of school bullying, depression, and AMPQ-II high risk were closely related to suicidal
ideation of high school students. Thus, AMPQ-II and BDI score can use as a screening tool for adolescent suicide
ideation.
