The stability dynamics of the pulsational mode of gravitational collapse (PMGC), excitable in athermal (nonthermal) spherical complex dust molecular clouds (DMCs) in the presence of active role of negative ions, is semi-analytically investigated. The adopted partially ionized DMC model consists of five constitutive plasma species, well-coupled via the gravito-electrostatic Poisson formalism, depicting the corresponding potential-density correlations. The nonthermal uncorrelated lighter (inertialess) species are electrons, positive ions, and negative ions. The thermal correlated heavier (inertial) species are neutral and charged dust grains. The application of a standard spherical wave analysis results in a generalized linear cubic dispersion equation involving a new set of multi-factorial dispersion coefficients dependent on diverse equilibrium plasma parameters. A numerical illustrative platform is broadly created to analyze the DMC stabilization and destabilization factors relative to the non-local inward Newtonian self-gravity. It is interestingly seen that the DMC stabilizing agents are the radial cloud size, dust charge, neutral dust viscoelastic relaxation time, Tribeche thermostatistical parameters, etc. In contrast, the dust mass and equilibrium neutral dust density show destabilizing effects, and so forth. The results systematically explored here are fairly consistent and reliably correlated with the previous results on structure formation mechanism in the DMCs as heretofore reported extensively in the literature.
