of military suicide, and 1088 soldiers were evaluated by cluster sampling method, and the indicators
were analyzed statistically. Results: There were significant differences in gender, age, post and education
level, but no significant differences in service and arms, marital status, unit nature and military station.

external environment is not the important factor that leads to the soldiers’ suicide psychology.
