Loneliness and suicidal ideation (SI) are relevant issues. This study aimed to examine the prevalence of death ideation (DI) and SI in the general population across four age groups and to determine the extent to which emotional and social loneliness are associated with SI. Data were collected via an online panel in Slovenia in February 2019 on a representative sample of 991 participants (50.5% men) aged 18 years and over. Participants completed a series of questionnaires on loneliness, suicidality, stress, and well-being. DI, SI, and previous suicide attempts were most common among younger participants. In each age group, several factors appeared as important predictors of SI, with emotional loneliness being a significant factor in all groups. Given the role of emotional loneliness in SI, prevention programs should address loneliness and its correlates across age groups.
孤独和自杀意念（SI）是相关问题。本研究旨在调查四个年龄组普通人群中死亡意念（DI）和SI的患病率，并确定情感孤独和社交孤独与SI相关的程度。2019年2月，通过斯洛文尼亚的一个在线小组对991名年龄在18岁及以上的代表性样本（50.5%为男性）收集了数据。参与者完成了一系列关于孤独、自杀倾向、压力和幸福感的问卷。DI、SI和既往自杀未遂在年轻参与者中最为常见。在每个年龄组中，有几个因素似乎是SI的重要预测因素，情感孤独在所有组中都是一个重要因素。鉴于情感孤独在SI中的作用，预防计划应针对各年龄组的孤独及其相关因素。
