Methods Four thousand nine hundred eighteen sophomores and juniors were selected according to the principle of cluster sampling from Beijing agricultural university and Beijing university of information science and tech?nology. Four thousand seven hundred ninety-seven of them completed the survey. Their impulsive and aggressive person?ality were evaluated by the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale-Chinese Versions (BIS-CV) and the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire-Chinese Versions (AQ-CV). A self-made questionnaire were used to investigate suicidal idea and self-in?jury/suicidal behavior of college students. Results Among the sophomores and juniors, 18 participants had self-injury/suicidal behavior (3.75‰) and 1843 had suicidal idea (38.42%). Compared with the students who didn’t have self-inju?ry/suicidal behavior, those who once had self-injury/suicidal behavior had significantly higher BIS-CV score (P<0.01) and higher scores of non-planning and motor factors (P<0.05). They also had significantly higher score in AQ-CV and the factors of physical aggression, verbal aggression, anger, hostility and pointing to the self attacks (P<0.01).
