Suicidal ideation represents a clinical emergency in psychiatry and individuals with suicidal ideation had a higher risk for suicide attempt than ones with non-suicidal ideation. The purpose of this study was to investigate the mediation role of depression in the relationship between resilience and problem-oriented and emotion-oriented coping strategies with suicidal ideation. The present study was a correlational research based on structural equation modeling (SEM). In this regard, using multi-stage random sampling method, a sample of 372 students was selected from the students of Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz. Participants completed the Beck Suicide Ideation Scale (BSI), the Connor & Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RIS), the Stress Coping Questionnaire, and the Beck Depression Inventory (BDI-13). Structural equation modeling method was used to analyze the data. The results showed that there is a significant negative relationship between resilience and problem-oriented coping strategy with depression, but there is a significant positive relationship between emotion-oriented coping strategy and depression. The most important finding is that depression acts as a mediator in the relationship between resilience and problem-oriented and emotion-oriented coping strategies with suicidal ideation (p < 0.001). Based on the findings of the present study, it can be concluded that resilience, problem-oriented and emotion-oriented coping strategies and depression are the main factors influencing suicidal ideation and can predict suicidal ideation.
