Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the moderating role of mindfulness on the relationship between daily life stress and suicidality among Korean college students. Accordingly, 355 college students (Mage = 21.59, SD = 2.07; men: 157, women: 198) participated in this study. Hierarchical multiple regression analysis revealed that mindfulness moderated the effect of daily life stress on suicidal ideation. Three facets of mindfulness, namely, nonreactivity to experience, nonjudging of inner experience, and acting with awareness, were found to moderate the relationship between daily life stress and suicidal ideation. Additionally, mindfulness, nonjudging of inner experience, and nonreactivity to experience were shown to moderate the relationship between daily life stress and suicide attempts. These findings explain why mindfulness-based interventions are effective in reducing daily life stress and suicidal ideation among college students.
