Abstract

The main focus of the article is on the study of relationship between teaching achievements and the manifestations of suicidal behavior –depression, aggression and anxiety. The study was conducted with 302 adolescents studying in Baku and Ganja.One of the main hypotheses of the study was the relationship between student achievement and depression, mental state and suicidal risk.It is believed that there is an inverse relationship between students’ learning achievement and the three characteristics mentioned. That is, if these three features are at high level, it will negatively affect students’ academic achievement and the students’ academic achievement will be low. The study showed that there is a positive correlation between adolescents’ learning activities, including their achievements, and suicidal behavior. The correlation coefficient between all three features is significant at 0.01. That is, in all three tables, P = 0.000, which indicates that the relationship is significant at the level of 0.01. We believe that it is possible to reduce this dependence by overcoming the depressive state and directing the mental state in a positive direction.
