The research aims to study the relationship between maladaptive cognitive schemas and suicidal thoughts among a sample of university students. The sample of the current study was chosen from students of some theoretical and applied colleges, and it consisted of (225) male and female students, with (149) male and (76) female students, and their ages ranged from Between (18-24) with an average chronological age (20.9) of students from different colleges, the researcher used the following tools: the maladaptive cognitive schemas scale prepared by (Mohamed Abdel Rahman, Mohamed Saafan, 2015), the borderline personality disorder scale prepared by (Heba Mohamed Ali). The results of the research resulted in a statistically significant correlation between all dimensions of maladaptive cognitive schemas among students with suicidal thoughts and tendencies at a significance level of (0.01) among university students. It also resulted in statistically significant differences between those with high and low maladaptive cognitive schemas in borderline personality disorder in favor of those with high schemas. In addition, it appeared among the results that “there is a statistically significant effect for both the factors of gender (males and females) and academic specialization (literary, scientific).” And the interaction between them on “borderline personality disorder” for the suicidal dimension, and it also resulted in that there are no statistically significant differences between males and females in suicidality. There are no statistically significant differences between students of the scientific and literary departments in suicidality. There is no statistically significant effect of the factors of gender and specialization in their joint effect on suicidal university students. It also resulted in the dimensions of schemas (defect/shame, inability to control oneself/ self-control) being predictive. Without others, the dimension of suicidality is one of the dimensions of borderline personality disorder, with a total contribution of 25%. (Published abstract)
