A self-reported questionnaire survey was conducted to collect the information about suicide ideation,suicide planning and suicide attempts within 12 months. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to analyze the risk factors for the three aspects of suicide among middle school students.

The prevalence rates of suicide ideation,suicide planning and suicide attempts among middle school students during the last 12 months were 12.93%,4.54% and 5.06%,respectively. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that females(OR:1.397-1.575,95%CI:1.178-1.927),students of grade 7 to 9(OR:1.625-1.824,95%CI:1.323-2.082),poor health condition(OR:1.160-2.131,95%CI:1.005-2.985),loneliness(OR:1.574-4.423,95%CI:1.221-5.254 ),desperation(OR:2.796-3.232,95%CI:2.400-3.990),anxiety(OR:1.890-2.117,95%CI:1.503-2.496),less than 8 hours a day of sleep(OR:1.152-1.263,95%CI:1.030-1.594),smoking(OR:1.476-2.074,95%CI:1.055-3.072),drinking(OR:1.479-1.863,95%CI:1.271-2.296),fighting(OR:1.716-1.941,95%CI:1.330-2.422)and school bullying(OR:2.254-3.292,95%CI:1.342-5.277)were common risk factors for suicide ideation,suicide planning and suicide attempts;physical activity(OR:0.597-0.720,95%CI:0.474-0.923)was a common protective factor for suicide ideation,suicide planning and suicide attempts.
