Results: The mean age of the individuals was 34. 6 ± 11 years and their Social Capital score 53. 63 ± 10. 52. Among the eight Social Capital components, the value of life (57. 91 ± 17. 7) and participation in the local community (44. 28 ± 15. 28) were found to have the highest and lowest mean scores, respectively. Further analysis of the data showed that sex, education level and perceived Health could predict 23% of the changes in the total Social Capital (p <0. 001). Conclusion: In this study, the level of Social Capital of the participants was low, but the demographic factors and Health status were related to Social Capital. Therefore, policymakers and social and Health planners should design and implement community-based interventions to improve the level of Social Capital.
