This study was conducted with a purpose of finding out the psychosocial factors that influence suicidal thoughts and behaviors of runaway youths. A cross-sectional survey of 150 runaway youths from youth shelters and city streets revealed that females more than males and youths living in streets more than those living in shelters tended to exhibit higher levels of suicidal thoughts and behaviors. The factors that influenced suicidal thoughts and behaviors were as follows: 1) whether or not the youth had ever been stopped from eating (food abuse), 2) whether or not there is a history of substance abuse in the family, 3) whether or not the youth experienced sexual abuse from a family member, 4) level of depression, 5) whether or not the youth has a friend who had attempted suicide. Based on the results, intervention strategies for the prevention of suicide among runaway youths are suggested.
