Outline of Final Research Achievements |
While research on micro social relationships has notable implications that social support can influence an individual’s health, more attention is now being directed toward the influences of an individual’s macro social relationships with the community, i.e., social capital. In one of our main studies we examined the relationship between reciprocity among community dwelling adults and self-rated health by analyzing data from a survey conducted every 5 years between 1991 and 2011 in Japan. A multi-level analysis showed that both at the individual and group levels, higher reciprocity was associated with higher self-rated health. However, there was an interaction effect involving reciprocity at two levels: a stronger correlation between individual reciprocity and self-rated health was observed for individuals from a recent cohort with a low level of group reciprocity.
