This study aimed to establish the association of low social capital (SC) with psychological distress indicators. A cross-sectional study was carried out using an online questionnaire that evaluated demographic variables, social capital, perceived stress related to coronavirus disease, depression risk, insomnia risk, and suicide risk. SC was taken as an independent variable, and symptoms indicating psychological distress were considered as dependent variables. A group of 700 adults aged between 18 and 76 years (M = 37, SD = 13) participated in the survey. Low SC was associated with depression risk (odds ratio [OR] = 2.00, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.34-2.97), elevated suicide risk (OR = 2.62, 95% CI = 1.40-4.91) high perceived stress related to coronavirus disease (OR = 2.08 95% CI, 1.15-3.76), and insomnia risk (OR = 2.42, 95% CI = 1.69-3.47). In conclusion, low CS was associated with indicators of psychological distress. SC is a community social resource that could help mitigate the quarantine impact of coronavirus disease amidst the Colombian population's psychological health.
本研究旨在确定低社会资本（SC）与心理困扰指标之间的关联。采用在线问卷进行了一项横断面研究，评估了人口统计学变量、社会资本、与冠状病毒病相关的感知压力、抑郁风险、失眠风险和自杀风险。将 SC 作为自变量，将表明心理困扰的症状视为因变量。共有 700 名年龄在 18 至 76 岁之间的成年人（M = 37，SD = 13）参与了调查。低 SC 与抑郁风险（比值比 [OR] = 2.00，95%置信区间 [CI] = 1.34-2.97）、自杀风险升高（OR = 2.62，95% CI = 1.40-4.91）、与冠状病毒病相关的感知压力升高（OR = 2.08，95% CI，1.15-3.76）和失眠风险（OR = 2.42，95% CI = 1.69-3.47）相关。总之，低 CS 与心理困扰指标有关。SC 是一种社区社会资源，可以帮助减轻冠状病毒病在哥伦比亚人口心理健康方面的隔离影响。
