ABSTRACT

This study explores the changes of awareness of social capital among the residents of four rural communities in South Korea according to the temporal flow. A survey was conducted for a total of four times over two years at intervals of every six months. This study conducted ANOVA analysis with residents’ questionnaires and compared changes in the four latent factors of social capital. As a result, community residents' perceptions of social capital rose steadily from the start until the end of the study, and it was confirmed that the upward trend would decrease over time. In addition, the perception of institutional structural factors of social capital was relatively higher than at the beginning of the study, and the associative network factor had a relatively low perception compared to the other three factors of social capital. The major contribution of this study is confirming that the perception of community residents was continuously rising for the four social capital factors, and that the recognition level of the factors was also different in each period.
