Measure
Revised NEO Personality Inventory. A standardized test developed by Paul Costa Jr. and Robert McCrae, which consists of 240 items and is self-administered. It gives a concise measure of the five major domains of personality, namely: Neuroticism (N), Extraversion (E), Openness to experience (O), Agreeableness (A), and Conscientiousness (C). Each domain has 6 facet scales. Together, the 5 domains and the 30 facet scales give a comprehensive assessment of personality. Items under

This individual would likely be skeptic of the intentions of others towards him, and is someone who has difficulties in trusting those around him with his problems or his feelings, in general. He would also most likely be angry most of the time, or be easily angered by the, as he would think, intolerable situations he is in. He would also face difficulties in dealing with issues in a problem-based manner, and would most likely give up easily when trying to solve them, and having a high level of impulsivity, this individual is likely to self-harm or engage in any suicide behavior without thinking

Individuals who score low in this domain are predominantly suspicious, unfriendly, and antagonistic. In addition to lacking the capacity to feel genuine concern for the well-being of others, they may find it difficult to function socially as a result of their automatic pessimism and distrust of others people’s intentions. Moreover, stemming from the antagonistic nature, they may often choose to compete than to cooperate. This may eventually lead to social isolation and possibly increase the risk for suicidal ideation.
This is supported by the research study of Kerby (2003), which indicate that people who have a low score in agreeableness are at a higher risk of having suicide ideation. Similar to the study of Kerby, Soltaninejad et al. (2013) also found that a low level of agreeableness is positively correlated with suicide ideation. Moreover, in a study conducted by Shirazi, Khan, and Ansari (2012), results indicate that the trait agreeableness is the most significant contributor in explaining mental health. A person high in agreeableness would be more amenable to support and intervention, and would, in turn, be less susceptible to suicide
