Social capital is frequently indicated as a crucial determinant of population health, as it encompasses the networks of relationships, trust, and social norms that facilitate cooperation within or among groups. This study aims to investigate the role of social capital in health outcomes, particularly in Yogyakarta province. Using a National Socioeconomic Survey (Susenas) 2022, this study employs a logit estimation model to assess the association between social capital and health outcomes. The results reveal that individuals who participated in two types of social capital activities were less likely to experience illness than those not involved in any social capital activities. This indicates the importance of social capital as a significant factor in promoting better health and preventing disease. The findings underscore the need for policies that foster social engagement and community participation to enhance public health in Yogyakarta.
Key words: social capital / health outcome / logit
