“…Cultural capital refers to a socially unique and distinctive set of tastes, skills, knowledge, and practices (Bourdieu, 1986;Holt, 1998;Kim & Kim, 2009;Lee, 2017). The theory of cultural capital began with the observation by Bourdieu (1986) that academic outcomes of children were unequal among different social classes, thereby indicating that cultural capital is a significant factor in the intergenerational transmission of social class (Bourdieu, 1986;Dumais, 2002;Kim & Kim, 2009;Wildhagen, 2010;Lee, 2017).…”

Cultural capital, unevenly distributed among social classes, has a significant impact on cultural consumption as it forms the ability to appreciate and become familiar with high art (Bourdieu, 1986;DiMaggio & Useem, 1978;Lee, 2017).…”

“…The festival visitors with strong cultural capital can be positively related to a sense of well-being and life satisfaction (Kim & Kim, 2009). Although economic and material elements are regarded as crucial conditions of well-being, researchers are paying attention to cultural-artistic activity for satisfying higher needs in life (Kim & Kim, 2009).…”

“…Although economic and material elements are regarded as crucial conditions of well-being, researchers are paying attention to cultural-artistic activity for satisfying higher needs in life (Kim & Kim, 2009). Cultural and artistic activities make positive contributions to people's subjective evaluation of their general life (Kim & Kim, 2009). The more frequently people join cultural activities, the higher life satisfaction and happiness they experience (Kim & Kim, 2009).…”

A B S T R A C TGiven the economic, social, and cultural benefits that successful festivals generate, researchers have made substantial academic effort to understand the predictors and consequences of festival satisfaction. Although existing literature has focused on festival context to understand them, this study proposes that the cultural capital of visitors predicts the music festival satisfaction and the satisfied festival experience results in higher quality of life (QoL). The integrative framework suggests that music festival satisfaction mediates the relationship between visitors' cultural capital and their QoL. Based on a survey at the Great Mountains Music Festival in Korea, this study confirmed data validity and tested hypotheses by adopting structural equation modeling. The research result shows that visitors' cultural capital has a positive effect on music program satisfaction and the satisfactory festival experiences significantly enhance their QoL. Focusing on the influence of personal values and preferences on festival experiences and consequences, this study highlights the significance of cultural capital of visitors and presents implications for festival organizers.

“…Various studies report a positive relationship between cultural activities and educational attainment, cognitive skills, social capital and quality of life (e.g. DiMaggio, 1982;Hille and Schupp, 2015;Jeannotte, 2003;Kim and Kim, 2009). Despite public finding, there is however a clear education gradient in cultural engagement, and participation rates are typically higher among the better-educated (e.g.…”

Terms of use: Documents in SOEPpapers on Multidisciplinary Panel Data Research at DIW BerlinThis series presents research findings based either directly on data from the German SocioEconomic Panel study (SOEP) or using SOEP data as part of an internationally comparable data set (e.g. CNEF, ECHP, LIS, LWS, CHER/PACO). SOEP is a truly multidisciplinary household panel study covering a wide range of social and behavioral sciences: economics, sociology, psychology, survey methodology, econometrics and applied statistics, educational science, political science, public health, behavioral genetics, demography, geography, and sport science.The decision to publish a submission in SOEPpapers is made by a board of editors chosen by the DIW Berlin to represent the wide range of disciplines covered by SOEP. There is no external referee process and papers are either accepted or rejected without revision. Papers appear in this series as works in progress and may also appear elsewhere.

AbstractThe aim of this study is to estimate the causal effect of cultural participation on health status. Cultural activities may directly impact upon health through palliative coping or substituting health-compromising behaviors. Cultural engagement may also facilitate the development of social networks, which can improve health via social support and the dissemination of social health norms. Previous estimates on the arts-health relationship are potentially biased due to reverse causality and unobserved heterogeneity. Using individuallevel data from Germany, we employ propensity-score matching methods. The treatment group is confined to individuals that visit cultural events at least once a month. The participation equation includes a rich set of personal characteristics that cover the respondents' demographic and social background, social capital and leisure-time activities, health-related lifestyle, personality and childhood environment. We explicitly consider reverse causality by including the pre-treatment trends in health outcomes am...
