description | This paper performs an empirical investigation to study the relationship between different elements such as mental health conditions, believes and overall perception and suicide attempt. Our study covers all female and male students who study in a private university in Iran. There are about 400 students who participated in our survey and we distribute three questionnaires among them consist of various questions. The results indicate that there are strong negative correlations between suicide attempts and students' believes in God regardless of their genders. The survey also indicates that there is not any strong positive correlation between students' mental health care and religious believes. The results of the study show that there is not a meaningful difference between the health care of male students and female students on suicide attempts. The study concludes that there is a strong difference between suicide attempts between female and male students. |
