Application of a social capital scale in older women attending public primary care clinics (r = -0,43, p < 0,01). Higher territorial roots were associated with a lower perception of social community resource availability (r = -0,42, p < 0,01). Conclusions: The social capital scores in these women were low. Their better support networks were close relationships and relatives. The sensation of solitude increased with age. (Rev Med Chile 2016; 144: 972-979)

“…Yet, there is no satisfying consensus on how it should be defined (Agampodi, Agampodi, Glozier, &Siribaddana, 2015). In attempt to define it, every field of study moulds it to suit its context (Villalonga-Olives&Kawachi, 2015a, 2015b).…”

“…To trigger social capital research, so many researchers validated scales for assessing social capital both at group and individual level (Veerle et al, 2012) most of which were emanated from developed countries (Agampodi, et al, 2015), scholars have debated extensively as to which measurement is the best. Although there is no consensus on one best measure, but some of them are preferred more than the others as they possess better psychometric properties.…”

“…Meanwhile, the substantial effects of social capital components (mainly trust and membership) are simply in line with their robust association with SWB in previous studies. While social capital is often equated with social relationship (Agampodi, Agampodi, Glozier, & Siribaddana, 2015;Kim, Lee, & Yoon, 2014;Salomons, 2006;Yang, Yuan, & Wang, 2008), or considered to be a core concept of it (McKnight, Teaster, Watkins, & Lawrence., 2005;Moscardo, 2007;Risal, 2008Risal, , 2013Schrader, 2004), the present study suggests that the social relation is equally important for happiness and LS.…”

Jun, K-H. (2015). Re-exploration of subjective well-being determinants: Full-model approach with extended cross-contextual analysis. International Journal of Wellbeing, 5(4), Abstract: Despite the numerous studies on the determinants of subjective wellbeing (SWB), there are still under-researched areas as follows: a full-model approach allowing un-confounded and robust estimations, extension of cross-contextual approaches, and an account of recent changes in Hofstede value dimensions. The present study aims to overcome those limitations with analyses of 59 countries from 1981 to 2013, rendering the following main findings. Individual education's effect was methodologically affected by the reference category level of dummy variables. I found weak influence of GPRGE (governance, political rights, and gender equality) and individualism, which were associable with the ambivalent nature of intellectual autonomy. Regarding crosscontextual effects, I found that people from underdeveloped societies keep more to current pleasure, and that demand for welfare is higher in affluent and individualistic societies. A culture of uncertainty avoidance reduced the effect of national employment, because of its demotivating aspects in the workplace. Overall, variables related with hedonism, social relation, and wealth showed coherently strong effects, but social progress factors had weak relevance.
