چکیده

هدف: خودکشی، یکی از بزرگ‌ترین معضلات در زمینه سلامت روان است. لذا هدف پژوهش حاضر، الگویابی ساختاری گرایش به خودکشی بر اساس نیرومندی من با نقش تعدیل­‌گری وضعیت اشتغال در زنان مطلقه است.
 
روش: پژوهش حاضر در رده پژوهش‌­های کاربردی و از نوع همبستگی بر اساس مدل‌­یابی معادلات ساختاری بود. جامعه آماری شامل زنان مطلقه تحت پوشش کمیته امداد امام خمینی (ره) اصفهان در سال 1402 بود که ابتدا به روش نمونه­‌گیری چندمرحله‌­ای از میان مناطق پنجگانه، دو منطقه (2 و 3) انتخاب و تعداد 270 نفر بر اساس جدول مورگان و جریسی و حداقل کفایت افراد گروه نمونه (SMART PLS3) انتخاب گردید. لذا پس از خارج نمودن تعداد پرسشنامه­‌های مخدوش در نهایت تعداد 250 پرسشنامه بررسی شد. ابزارهای این پژوهش شامل پرسشنامه سنجش افکار خودکشی (بک، 1961) و پرسشنامه سنجش نیرومندی من (استروم و همکاران،1997) بودند.
 
یافته‌ها: نتایج نشان داد تأثیر نیرومندی من بر گرایش به خودکشی معنی‌دار است (001/0≥p، 455/0- β=). همچنین تأثیر نیرومندی من بر گرایش به خودکشی در زنان مطلقه خانه دار (001/0≥p، 637/0- β=) و زنان مطلقه شاغل (001/0≥p، 311/0- β=) معنادار به دست آمد. در راستای بررسی نقش تعدیل­‌گر وضعیت اشتغال، ضرایب تأثیر نیرومندی من بر گرایش به خودکشی در گروه زنان خانه­‌دار و شاغل بررسی شد و بر اساس میزان تفاوت این ضرایب (326/0) وضعیت اشتغال تقشی تعدیل‌­گر دارد (001/0≥p).
 
نتیجه‌گیری: با توجه به نقش تعدیل‌گر معنادار وضعیت اشتغال، می‌توان با اشتغال‌زایی مناسب برای زنان گرایش به خودکشی را در این قشر کاهش داد.

چکیده [English]

Aim: Suicide represents a significant mental health challenge. Therefore, this study aims to establish a structural model of suicide tendencies based on ego strength, with the employment status mediating this relationship among divorced women.
 
Method: This research adopts an applicative approach using correlational analysis through structural equations modeling. The statistical population comprises divorced women covered by the Imam Khomeini Relief Committee of Isfahan in 2023. Districts 2 and 3 were chosen from 5 districts using multistage sampling. A total of 270 women were selected based on Morgan and Krejcie's Table and minimum sample adequacy criteria (Smart PLS3). After excluding distorted questionnaires, 250 questionnaires were analyzed. The research instruments included the Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (Beck, 1961) and the Psychosocial Inventory of Ego Strengths (Markstrom et al., 1997).
 
Results: The findings demonstrate the significant effect of ego strength on suicidal tendencies (p ≤ 0.001, β = -0.455). Moreover, ego strength significantly and directly influences suicidal tendencies in both divorced housewives (p ≤ 0.001, β = -0.637) and divorced working women (p ≤ 0.001, β = -0.311). Multi-group analysis comparing the coefficients of ego strength on suicidal tendencies in both groups revealed a significant difference (0.326, p ≤ 0.001), indicating the mediating role of employment status in the relationship between ego strength and suicidal tendencies.
 
Conclusion: The significant mediating role of employment status suggests that reducing suicidal tendencies among divorced women can be achieved by creating suitable job opportunities through the Committee.
