AB - It is known that the poor are usually less healthy than the rich, that the poor are more actively engaged in smoking and drinking, and less actively in exercise, good diet, and so on, and that the poor usually have less social capital than the rich.
This study aimed primarily to investigate the determinants of health-promoting behaviors of the poor, particularly focusing on their social capital. For this purpose, face-to-face interview survey was carried out among a sample of 350 residents of Joongwon-Gu, Seongnam-cityin May 2006. The study subjects were sampled from the poor under a poverty line, and using the data obtained from the survey, various models were specified to determine the factors affecting health-promoting behaviors.
The main results of the study are as follows; the social capital of the poor, measured at personal, communal, and institutional level, was found to have a statistically significant positive effect on their health-promoting behaviors, such as stopping smoking, reducing drinking, and regular diet, while the social capital of the poor was not found to have a statistically significant effect on regular exercise, undergoing medical examination, and controlling weight.
In conclusion, increasing the social capital of the poor is expected to contribute to enhancing health-promoting behaviors, and consequently health of the poor.
