All surveyedadolescents actively use available online resources as sources of educationaland entertaining content, and online communication platforms. Reliablysignifi cant psychological factors of suicidal risk in adolescents in the contextof digital socialization have been established, such as: affectivity, failure, socialpessimism, breaking down cultural barriers, maximalism, negative timeperspective, labile, psychasthenic and sensitive types of accentuations, dysfunctionalfamily relationships. Based on the data obtained, a mathematicalregression model for predicting suicidal risk was developed, which includedsignifi cant psychological factors: IP) - (. * A) + (. * NVS), where D - demonstrativeness, SP - social pessimism, M - maximalism, C - sensitive typeof accentuation, IP - a tendency to true suicide, A - adaptation, NVS - violationsof relationships in family.
