Abstract
This study aims to examine the influence of loneliness perceived by adolescents on suicidal ideation and identify the mediating effects of hope on the relation between loneliness perceived by adolescents and suicidal ideation to carry out preliminary data for preventing and controlling adolescents' suicide. The study subject comprises of 338 high school students, and the collected data were analyzed using SPSS/WIN 18.0. The results of the study show that adolescents' perceived loneliness and suicidal ideation had positive correlations with one another, and adolescents' perceived loneliness and hope, hope and suicidal ideation had negative correlation with one another. And analysis shows that the hope partially mediates the relation between loneliness and suicidal ideation. With the findings of the study, the significance of managing crisis situations of adolescents should be recognized and solutions such as hope enhancement programs should be promptly utilized.
