Resumo: | The present study examined the relationship between indicators of social capital and health-related behaviors. A cross-sectional study was conducted on a sample of 1,062 participants representative of the population aged 40 years or older from a city in Southern Brazil. The following indicators of social capital were examined: number of friends, number of people they could borrow money from when in need; extent of trust in community members; number of times members of the community help each other; community safety; and extent of membership in community activities. Also, an overall score of social capital including all indicators was calculated. A poor social capital was associated with insufficient leisure-time physical activity (OR = 1.70; 95%CI: 1.07-2.70), low consumption of fruits and vegetables (OR = 1.53; 95%CI: 1.05-2.24), and smoking (OR = 1.97; 95%CI: 1.21-3.21). No clear association was found between capital social and binge drinking. A score of social capital showed an inverse relationship with the number of prevalent risk behaviors (p < 0.001). These results reinforce that policies to promote health should consider social capital. |

Se realizó un estudio transversal con 1.062 personas representativas de la población de 40 años o más, de una ciudad del Sur del Brasil. Los indicadores de capital social fueron: número de amigos y personas que prestan dinero si fuera necesario, la confianza en la gente del barrio, la frecuencia con la que la gente del barrio se ayuda mutuamente, la seguridad del barrio y la participación comunitaria. También se construyó una puntuación del capital social en base a indicadores aislados de capital social. Un bajo capital social se asoció con la inactividad física en el tiempo libre (OR = 1,70; IC95%: 1,07-2,70), el consumo irregular de frutas y verduras (OR = 1,53; IC95%: 1,5-2,24), y el tabaquismo (OR = 1,97; IC95%: 1,21-3,21). No hubo una clara relación entre el capital social y el abuso de alcohol. La puntuación del capital social ha tenido una relación inversa con el número de conductas de riesgo (p < 0,001). Estos resultados refuerzan la importancia de considerar el capital social en las políticas de promoción de la salud.O objetivo do estudo foi verificar a associação entre indicadores de capital social e comportamentos relacionados à saúde. Foi realizado um estudo transversal com uma amostra de 1.062 sujeitos representativos da população de 40 anos ou mais de um município da Região Sul do Brasil. Os indicadores de capital social foram: número de amigos, pessoas que emprestariam dinheiro em caso de necessidade, confiança nas pessoas do bairro, frequência com que as pessoas no bairro se ajudavam, segurança no bairro e participação comunitária. Foi ainda calculado um escore de capital social que considerou os indicadores isolados. Baixo capital social foi associado com inatividade física no lazer (OR = 1,70; IC95%: 1,07-2,70), consumo irregular de frutas e verduras (OR = 1,53; IC95%: 1,05-2,24) e tabagismo (OR = 1,97; IC95%: 1,21-3,21). Não foi encontrada associação clara do capital social com o consumo abusivo de álcool. O escore de capital social mostrou uma relação inversa com o número de comportamentos de risco (p < 0,001).
