Social capital refers to various levels of social relationships formed through social networks. Measurement differences have lead to imprecise measurement. A meta-analysis of eligible studies assessing the bivariate association between social capital and self-reported health and all-cause mortality was performed. Thirty-nine studies met inclusion criteria, showing social capital increased odds of good health by 27 percent (95% confidence intervals [CI] =21%, 34%). Social capital variables, reciprocity increased odds of good health by 39 percent (95% CI = 21%, 60%) and trust by 32 percent (95% CI =19%, 46%). Future research suggests operationalizing measures by assessing differences by race/ethnicity, gender and socioeconomic status.
社会资本是指通过社会网络形成的各种层次的社会关系。由于测量方法的差异,导致测量结果不够精确。对评估社会资本与自我报告的健康和全因死亡率之间的双变量关系的合格研究进行了荟萃分析。39 项符合纳入标准的研究表明,社会资本使健康状况良好的几率增加了 27%(95%置信区间[CI]为 21%,34%)。社会资本变量,互惠使健康状况良好的几率增加了 39%(95% CI = 21%,60%),信任增加了 32%(95% CI = 19%,46%)。未来的研究建议通过评估种族/民族、性别和社会经济地位的差异来操作衡量标准。
