Improving our understanding of the precursors and the underlying mechanisms that lead to an increased risk of suicide in older adults is key to preventing suicide in this high-risk group. This study examined relationships between known risk factors of suicidal ideation (i.e., depression, hopelessness, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness) in a sample of 284 community-dwelling older adults (\n                    <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                    <jats:sub>age<\/jats:sub>\n                    = 73.3 years,\n                    <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                    = 7.1 years; 56% women; 86% White\/European American). Bivariate correlational results revealed that both depression (\n                    <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .62,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .001) and hopelessness (\n                    <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .56,\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    &lt; .001) were strongly and positively associated with suicidal ideation. The predictor variables (depression, hopelessness, thwarted belongingness, and perceived burdensomeness) were also significantly and positively correlated with each other, ranging between\n                    <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .35,\n                    <jats:italic>p &lt;<\/jats:italic>\n                    .001 for thwarted belongingness and depression and\n                    <jats:italic>r<\/jats:italic>\n                    = .63,\n                    <jats:italic>p &lt;<\/jats:italic>\n                    .001 for hopelessness and depression. We further investigated perceived burdensomeness as a moderator of the association between depression and suicidal ideation. Suicidal ideation was found to be elevated only when depressive symptoms are combined with the perception of being a burden. These findings underscore the importance of considering not only depressive symptoms when addressing suicide prevention efforts in older adults but also to focus on perceived burdensomeness as a strong contributing factor. Future research directions are discussed.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/00332941251340310","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,5]],"date-time":"2025-05-05T20:19:46Z","timestamp":1746476386000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Suicidal Ideation in Older Adults: Exploring the Role of Depression, Hopelessness, Perceived Burdensomeness, and Thwarted Belongingness"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6518-2966","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Daniel L.","family":"Segal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Meghan A.","family":"Marty","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Western North Carolina Veterans Affairs Health Care System, Asheville, NC, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Frederick L.","family":"Coolidge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Megan","family":"Armstrong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Psychology, University of Colorado at Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO, USA"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,5,5]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_6_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2018.02.084"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1440-1819.2005.01378.x"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2017.10.005"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0272-7358(88)90050-5"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/JGP.0b013e31817b609a"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jad.2007.11.008"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.2105\/AJPH.2012.301078"},{"key":"e_1_3_6_9_1","unstructured":"Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
