The Effect of Mental Health and the Cohesion of Family Relationships on the Suicide Tendency of Soldiers: Evaluating the Mediating Role of Organizational Factors
suicide of soldiers is a type of multi-dimensional behavioral damage that several factors are involved in its occurrence. The present study was conducted with the aim of explaining the structural relationships between mental health and cohesion of family relationships through organizational factors on the tendency of soldiers to commit suicide.
This research is a correlational and descriptive-analytical study. The population includes all the soldiers serving in the Iranian police force in 1400-1401 with a simple random sampling and a multi-stage cluster according to Cochran's formula, with a volume of 1000 people. The data were obtained from Goldberg and Hiller (1979) 28-GHQ mental health questionnaires, Joyner et al.'s (2009), family cohesion (2009) and researcher-made organizational factors questionnaires, and the method of confirmatory factor analysis model for the default model was checked by Spss16 and Amos24.
The proposed model has an acceptable fit. Mental health (P=0.022, B=-0.227) and the cohesion of family relationships (P=0.001, B=-0.157) have a significant inverse relationship with the tendency to commit suicide with the mediation of organizational factors. Mental health variables, family cohesion and organizational factors are simultaneously able to explain 25.3% of the variance of suicide tendency and mental health, and family cohesion is able to explain 16.2% of organizational factors.
mental health and the cohesion of family relationships strengthened through positive organizational factors lead to a correct understanding of service conditions and reduce the tendency to commit suicide among soldiers.
