Abstract: The aim of this study was to map the social capital profile and examine the association between social capital and three dimensions of self-reported health in Taiwan. Data were taken from a nationwide survey conducted in 2010. The results confirmed that (1) there was no difference for social capital between males and females; (2) individual-level social capital was the consistent and significant predictor of physical, psychological and social health, while females¡¦ physical health was not as good as males¡¦. Theoretical and empirical implications and future research are discussed.
