Introduction: Suicide has become a challenging mental health problem in Iran and the world. So, the point of this study was to use regression analysis to find out how to predict suicidal thoughts in people with aggression in Qods Hospital in Sanandaj County (Iran) based on mental pain, anger rumination, and personality traits.
Materials and Methods: This research is applied and descriptive-correlational in type. The statistical population includes all people with aggression who were hospitalized in Quds Hospital based on the diagnosis of psychiatrists, and their number was 180 people. According to Morgan's table, 120 people were selected as a sample using the available sampling method. The tools used in this research are Beck's Suicidality Questionnaire, Auerbach and Miklinser's Mental Pain, Sukhodolsky et al.'s Anger Rumination, and Costa and McCrae's Personality Traits. Descriptive statistics, correlation, and multivariate regression were used to analyze the statistical data using SPSS V.26 software.
Results: The variables of subjective pain, anger rumination, and personality traits have a statistically significant relationship with suicidal thoughts. Anger rumination and subjective pain have a positive and direct effect on suicidal thoughts. In personality traits, neuroticism has a positive and direct effect, and extraversion, agreeableness, openness to experience, and conscientiousness have a negative and inverse effect on suicidal thoughts.
Conclusion: It can be concluded that mental pain, anger rumination, and personality traits can be important predictors of suicidal thoughts in people with aggression.
