This study was investigated the relationship between the stress and suicidal ideation of adolescents from multi-cultural families. For the purpose, the study incorporated data of Youth Risk Behavior Web-based Survey 2011-2 and attempted to understand factors of their suicide ideation and reasons of stress, targeting 607 boy students and 543 girl students. For a statistical analysis, SPSS version 17.0 was used. During the analysis, the students one of which parents was not born in Korea were considered as those from multi-cultural families and statistical significance was set to be p<0.05, To look into relations between suicide ideation and reasons of stress with the former as a subordinate variable, the study figured out Odds Ratio(OR) through a simple logistics analysis and a complex sample was set for the analysis. Boy students had 2.70 times more suicide ideation due to stress from associates than girl students while girl students had 2.50 times more suicide ideation due to conflicts with parents than boy students. In conclusion, as there were various reasons of stress relating to individuals, families and school life which may affect suicide ideation of adolescents from multi-cultural families, our society should pay attention especially to improvement of relationships with parents and friends to prevent and control their suicide ideation.
