Abstract | Childhood maltreatment is any behavioral conduct by parents or guardian or any known or unknown person which causes physical, emotional, sexual pain to the child and hurts him/her immensely. Suicide ideation can be defined as the intention or desire to kill oneself. Suicide ideation is largely prevalent among youngsters. The aim of the present research paper is to find out gender difference in childhood maltreatment and suicide ideation among male and female students studying in Government colleges of Jammu city, India. Convenience sampling technique is used to collect the data. Mean and t-test are used for the analysis of data. After the analysis of data significant gender difference is found in childhood maltreatment and suicide ideation among college students. Results revealed that female students are more prone to physical neglect, emotional neglect, emotional abuse, sexual abuse whereas male students indicated only higher degree of physical abuse. At the same time females have shown higher suicide ideation than males. Thus present results are to be taken into serious consideration because young students are the future of our nation and it becomes the responsibility of educationists and psychologists to lay stress to cure not only their physical health but mental health too. So this study lays emphasis on the fact that colleges should organize workshops for students where they can be motivated, encouraged to live their life to the fullest and there must be counselling cells in the colleges to prevent and reduce suicide ideation among college students because mentally healthy students can concentrate more on studies and develop healthy habits which would eventually leads to development of society.
