Summary/Abstract: The most influential etiological model in explaining suicide is, the concept of risk and protection factors. Risk factors are factors that increase the likelihood of suicide, while protective factors are primary in terms of suicide or attempted suicide prevention, as these are factors that reduce the likelihood of suicide or attempted suicide. In this context, timely detection of these phenomena and preventive action is especially important because it would increase resilience to risk factors, especially among young people, but also other age groups, in order to more easily cope with various difficulties in their environment.
