Family function had significant correlations with mental health(r=.50, p<.00), depression(r=-.71, p<.00), and suicidal ideation(r=-.53, p<.00). And mental health had significant correlations with depression(r=-.74, p<.00), and suicidal ideation(r=-.51, p<.00), also depression had significant correlations with suicidal ideation(r=.57, p<.00).
