There are significant positive correlations between understanding total family function and hopelessness, family function and suicidal ideation and also between hopelessness and suicidal ideation of students. Therefore, hopelessness has a moderating role in the association between understanding family function and suicidal ideation. The association between family function and suicidal ideation increases at higher levels of hopelessness while in lower levels of hopelessness, this association is not significant.
