Objectives：This study was aimed at examining the emotional predictors of adolescent suicidal ideas in a community. Methods：The subjects were 1909 middle and high school students(936 males, 973 females) in Koyang-shi.

We compared the PS-1 of OSIQ scores of Anxious-depressive group(above cut-off points of CES-D, RCMAS and K-YSR) to those of control group, and conducted correlation analysis and stepwise multiple regression analysis to all subjects. Results：The number of anxious-depressive group was 126(6.58%) among 1909 subjects with significant gender difference(M：F ratio 1：1.5). Both PS-1 of OSIQ and SIQ scores were significantly higher in Anxious-depressive group than in control group. There were significant correlations among the scales：CES-D, RCMAS, A/D of K-YSR, PS-1 of OSIQ and SIQ.
