The present study was conducted to predict suicidal ideation based on the brain-behavioral systems with the mediating role of emotion regulation in depressed patients. The present research method was the descriptive-correlation type of structural equation modeling. The statistical population of the present study consisted of all women with depression who were referred to the psychological clinics of Tehran in 2022, from which 320 people were selected by non-random and available sampling methods. To measure the research variables, Beck et al.'s Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II, 1996), Beck et al.'s Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation (BSSI, 1979), Carver and White's Behavioral activation systems/Behavioral inhibition systems scale (BIS/BAS, 1994), and Gross & John's Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ, 2003) was used. The obtained data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation coefficient test and structural equation modeling. The results showed that there is a negative and significant relationship between the behavioral activation system and emotion regulation with suicidal ideation (P<0.01). There is a positive and significant relationship between behavioral inhibition systems and emotion regulation with suicidal ideation (P<0.01). Other results indicated the confirmation of the mediating role of emotion regulation in the relationship between behavioral brain systems and suicidal ideation in depressed patients (P<0.01). Also, the results showed that the proposed model had a good fit. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the regulation of emotion and brain-behavioral systems in preventing suicidal thoughts in psychological programs and interventions.
