Persons with the suicide ideation are a high risk group for different neurotic problems. The present study was mainly aimed at the exploration of gender specific neurotic spectrum problems in suicide ideators. For this 200 Senior Secondary School students (100 females & 100 males) randomly drawn for various schools of Gurgaon and Delhi, participated in the study. Selected subjects were tested with Beck Scale for Suicide Ideation, and PAI. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics (Mean, SD, SK, and KU) to ascertain the normalcy of data, t-ratios to compare the two groups in terms of their mean scores of 01 of suicide ideation scale and four of PAI clinical scales. Results revealed that female suicide ideators scored significantly high on two clinical scales out of four scales and high on suicide ideation scale. Overall findings revealed the female suicide ideators tend to develop the neurotic spectrum disorders along with suicidal tendency.
