A total of 608 university students completed self-reporting questionnaire on stress, suicidal ideation, Reasons for Living and social support.

Finally, the mediated moderation effect of social support the association between stress, Living on Suicidal, and suicidal ideation was found. These findings suggest that social support may function as a protective factor for university students' suicidal ideation.
