While suicide-related studies generally focus on the "negative" cognition of people, The Reason for Living Inventory developed by Linehan et al. Focus on “positive” cognitive that protects people from suicidal behavior. This systematic review was carried out to determine whether the relationship between suicidal behavior and the reasons for living of suicidal behaviors of individuals living in psychiatric clinics is protective against suicidal behavior. This review was conducted between January 2016-August 2017 through electronic databases Pubmed, Science Direct and PsycInfo. We included 14 studies. Factors affecting suicidal thoughts and/or suicide attempts were investigated by evaluating the suicidal behavior of the patients who were treated in the psychiatric clinic. It has been determined that the narratives of impulsivity, aggression, hopelessness, depression, substance or alcohol use, childhood and adolescent abuse history, mental pain, presence of family suicide behavior, suicide attempt narrative, and borderline personality disorder are factors that increase suicidal behavior. Reasons for living are protective factors for suicidal behavior. It is suggested that as the reasons for living increase, the possibility of suicide may decrease.
