Abstract
The study aimed to reveal the nature of the relationship between suicidal tendencies and psychological frustration among a sample of (200) young men and women. To achieve the study's objectives, the researcher used a suicidal tendencies questionnaire and a psychological frustration scale, after verifying their validity and reliability. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS). The results showed a statistically significant relationship between suicidal tendencies and psychological frustration. Additionally, the results indicated significant differences on the suicidal tendencies scale based on gender, favoring males, and no statistically significant differences based on social status in the level of suicidal tendencies. However, significant differences were found based on economic status, favoring those with low economic levels. The results also showed no statistically significant differences on the psychological frustration scale related to gender and social status, while significant differences were found based on economic status, favoring those with a weak economic situation.
