abstract="No study to date has simultaneously examined the commonalities and unique aspects of positive psychological factors and whether these factors uniquely account for a  reduction in suicide risk. Using a factor analytic approach, the current study  examined the relationships between grit, hope, optimism, and their unique and  overlapping relationships in predicting suicide ideation. <br><br>RESULTS of principle axis  factor analysis demonstrated close relationships between these variables at both the  construct and item level. Item-level analyses supported a five-factor solution  (Stick-to-Itiveness, Poor Future, Consistency of Interest, Positive Future, and Poor  Pathways). Four of the five factors (excluding Stick-to-Itiveness) were associated  with suicide ideation. Additionally, results of a multiple regression analysis  indicated that two of the five factors (Consistency of Interest and Positive Future)  negatively predicted suicide ideation while Poor Future positively predicted suicide  ideation. Implications regarding the interrelationships between grit, hope, and  optimism with suicide ideation are discussed.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
