In terms of the validity of the items used, the value of the loading factor obtained is 0.450-0.895. This value range indicates that this item is acceptable and suitable for the instrument. The result showed significant consequences for developing suicidal ideation behaviour among drug addicts. The results showed that the SIBA instrument had a high Cronbach's Alpha value of 0.858 (interpersonal conflict) 0.858 (emotional disorder), 0.831 (depression) and 0.895 (hopelessness). The results of this study clearly show that the instrument has a high reliability and thus can be used in assessing suicidal ideation behaviour among drug addicts.
