This study examined associations between self-rated health and combinations of social participation and trust among ageing people in three living areas of Finland (N=2815, 66% response rate). Social participation and trust combinations were: low social capital (low participation/low trust), traditionalism (low/high), "the miniaturisation of community" (high/low) and high social capital (high/high). The highest rate of good self-rated health was found among the high social capital group, but after adjusting for background variables, statistical significance remained only in the urban area. High social capital measured at an individual level may thus promote health among ageing people.
本研究调查了芬兰三个居住区域的老年人自评健康状况与社会参与和信任组合之间的关联（N = 2815，回复率66%）。社会参与和信任组合包括：低社会资本（低参与/低信任）、传统主义（低/高）、“社区小型化”（高/低）和高社会资本（高/高）。高社会资本组的自评健康状况良好率最高，但在对背景变量进行调整后，统计学显著性仅在城市地区存在。因此，个体层面衡量的高社会资本可能会促进老年人的健康。
