Objectives This study investigated the factors associated with suicidal ideation in the elderly. Methods A total of 136 subjects over 60 years old who visited the public offices in Bucheon-si, Gyeonggi Province in South Korea participated in the study. Subjects completed a series of questionnaires including the following : demographic information ; physical illness ; psychological illness ; suicidal ideation. In addition, Center for Epidemiologic Studies-Depression Scale and At¬titudes Towards Suicide-20 were used to assess the severity of depression and the attitude to¬wards suicide, respectively. Results Multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine the factors that affect suicidal ideation in the elderly. As a result, living alone, depression, having any physical ill¬ness, and permissive attitude towards suicide were risk factors for suicidal ideation in the elderly. Conclusion In addition to previously identified risks factors (living alone, physical illness, and depression), the study found that permissive attitude towards suicide also serves as a risk factor for suicide in elderly people. Therefore, permissive attitude towards suicide should be addressed and evaluated in order to prevent suicide in the elderly.
