There were significant differences in the scores of life meaning and suicide ideation among college students of different ages， grades， and household registration groups （P<0.01）. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that the scores of father-child closeness， mother-child closeness， and psychological resilience had positive predictive effects on the score of life meaning （β=0.11，0.13，0.49，P<0.05）， and negative predictive effects on the score of suicidal ideation （β=-0.14，-0.08，-0.19，P<0.05）. ConclusionOlder， senior， and non-local college students were key groups to focus on in life education. Promoting the realization of close family relationships and parental collaborative parenting， as well as enhancing personal psychological resilience， may help to improve college students’ positive life attitudes.
