Suicide prevention is a growing health concern in America for many minority groups. Although experts agree suicide is associated with cultural practices and beliefs, there is limited evidence on how African American women cultural values and practices influence their low rates of suicide. This study explores cultural identity, Africultural coping strategies, and depression as predictors of suicidal ideations and attempts among African American female college students. It was hypothesized that suicidal ideations and attempts are negatively related to cultural identity and Africultural coping styles, but positively related to depression. One hundred and thirty-seven African American female students were administered a battery of measures assessing cultural identity, coping strategies, and suicidal ideations and attempts. Results revealed that Africultural coping strategies and depression emerged as significant predictors of suicidal ideation and attempts. Results are discussed in terms of African American culture as a buffer to possible suicidal behavior in African American women.
