Tiivistelmä

The paper explores the association between the social capital of young
people at 12-13 years and their subjective well-being using Finland’s
sub-sample of the third wave of the International Survey of Children’s
Well-Being. Despite many previous studies on this topic, relatively
little is known of the actual effect of social capital given that
different studies define and measure social capital differently. We rely
strictly on Robert Putnam’s theory and understand it as a combination
of social networks, trust, and norms of reciprocity. We measure
well-being with two context-free scales: a one-dimensional overall life
satisfaction scale and a five-dimensional Student’s life satisfaction
scale. The analysis is done with linear and unconditional quantile
regression. The results indicate that all three dimensions of social
capital are significantly associated with well-being. Of the three,
trust is the strongest predictor explaining over 30% of the variance in
both well-being scales. Quantile regression suggests that while social
capital is important for young people across the quantiles, trustful
relations with family members are particularly important for those who
fare poorly otherwise. For those who are satisfied with their lives, the
importance of family members is lower, albeit still significant, but
for them relationships with other people gain greater importance.
