Perspective Suicidal Ideation Among College Students and Exercise Intervention Strategies from the Perspective of Self-Determination Theory: A Theoretical Analysis

This research takes the Self - Determination Theory as the theoretical framework and deeply analyzes the influence mechanism of college students' suicidal ideation, and puts forward targeted exercise intervention strategies accordingly. The research uses the literature research method to sort out relevant theories and research results, collects data on college students' self - determination needs, suicidal ideation, etc. through a questionnaire survey method, and uses a structural equation model to analyze the relationships among various variables. The study found that the unmet needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness have a direct or indirect impact on college students' suicidal ideation through different mediating variables. Based on this, exercise intervention strategies to meet the needs for autonomy are proposed, such as providing opportunities to choose exercise items independently and formulating personalized exercise plans; exercise intervention strategies to meet the needs for competence, including setting hierarchical exercise goals, providing skill training and feedback; and exercise intervention strategies to meet the needs for relatedness, such as organizing team exercise activities and establishing exercise social groups, aiming to provide theoretical and practical basis for the prevention and intervention of college students' suicidal ideation.
