Background: To date, clinicians have lacked tools to reliably predict suicidal behavior. Most researchers have focused on the risk factors of suicidal ideation and attempts, instead of on positive emotions that reduce these risks. With the rise of positive psychology over the last two decades, more emphasis has been placed on the influence of positive attitudes, such as reasons for living and hope, on suicidal ideation.Aim of the study:To analyze the correlation of suicide probability and reason for hospitalization in psychiatric clinics.Materials and methods:The study was conducted in the department of psychology of the teaching institute. For the study we selected 50 patients hospitalized in psychiatric centers. Patients older than 18 years, voluntarily participating, having at least one psychiatric diagnosis according to the DSM‑V, being approved by a psychiatrist to participate to the study and being hospitalized in psychiatry clinic were included in the study. For the collection of data personal information form, suicide probability scale (SPS), RFL, Beck’s depression inventory (BDI), and volunteer form were used. The collected data was statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 50 patients participated in the study. The mean age of the patients was 42.33+12.21 years. On comparing the results we observed statistically significant results in Educational status, living status and suicidal thoughts. With respect to patients having history death of close friend or relative and death by suicide of close friend or relative, we observed statistically significant results. Conclusion: Significant parameters are responsible for increasing the suicide probability in patients at psychiatry hospitals. So, psychiatric personnel at the hospital are requested to contribute to the safety of the patients and the therapeutic environment by observing these results during patient observation, patient interviews, and patient treatment within the mental health service.
