Objectives The current study aimed at validating the Integrated Motivational-Volitional Model of suicidal behavior in Iranian students.
Methods The population of the current descriptive correlational and structural equation model included all students of Ardabil city among which 520 people of Mohaghegh Ardabili University students were selected as the sample. Suicide Attempt Scale, The Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire-Revised (SBQ-R), Implementation Scale, The Short Defeat and Entrapment Scale, Interpersonal Needs Questionnaire, Impulsivity Scale, Exposure to suicidal behavior Scale, Self-Perceived Acquired Capability for Suicide Scale, and Non-suicidal self-injury Scale were used.
Results The study findings showed that the modal had a good fitness in students’ community and can explain suicide properly. Defeat and Entrapment play the most roles in forming suicide ideas and interpersonal needs; loneliness has a little effect on forming suicide ideas. Implementation, acquired capability for suicide and suicide ideas are the most important mediators that can explain suicide attempt in this model.
Conclusion Based on the current study findings it can be concluded that Motivational Volitional Model can explain suicide.
