The increasing suicide rate is a serious social problem in Korea. This study aimed to verify the reliability and validity for the Korean version of the Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (Beck, Steer, & Ranieri, 1988) with university students. The BSI measures the intensity, duration, and specificity of suicidal ideation and plans; it is a self-report version of the Scale for Suicide Ideation (Beck, Kovacs, & Weissman, 1979). We administered the Korean version of the BSI (K-BSI) to 1,248 students, and 177 reported suicidal ideation. Within the sample of 177, K-BSI scores were positively correlated with suicide-related behaviors and with scores on the Suicidal Behavior Questionnaire-Revised (Osman, et al., 2001), Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (Radloff, 1977), and Beck Hopelessness Scale (Beck, Weissman, Lester, & Trexler, 1974). Principle Axis factor analysis with promax rotation identified “ambivalence of suicide” and “active suicide ideation” dimensions. Finally, we discussed this study's limitations and implications for future research.
