Every stage of life is marked with both crisis points and phases of success and fulfillment. Adolescence and young adults, both still being in the preparatory stages of a mature orientation goes through many ups and downs of life which shapes their personality attributes. The purpose of the present research paper is to determine the correlation of different psychosocial variables with suicidal ideation. Purposive random sampling has been used for sample selection of 470 individuals. Statistical measure used for treatment of data is Pearson's Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. Positive signification correlation was obtained between suicidal ideation and different aspects of aggression such as state anger, trait anger, angry temperament, angry reaction, anger in, anger out, anger expression, personality types of psychoticism and neuroticism. Negative significant correlation was obtained between suicidal ideation and extraversion, social desirability, achievement motivation and reasons for living. However, negative but not statistically significant correlation was obtained between suicidal ideation and anger control. The findings indicate the association between different psychosocial correlates as maybe contributory to varied types of suicidal behaviour. Prevention and treatment of suicidal behaviour may take into consideration these psychosocial variables during intervention programs.Keywords
