Empirical Study to Entangle the Association between Social Capital and Health
Description: Social capital is important for older persons to live in community (Aging in Place). Social capital is associated with human cognition and can be created by social interaction. Group Intervention focused on the concept of Ryff's well-being was beneficial in terms of maintaining cognitive ability and social relationships among participants. Especially, environmental mastery in Ryff's scale which was associated with resilience, improved after the program, indicating the possibility of the creation of social capital through such programs.
