“…Trust and communication skills are considered as the main reason for patients' willingness to seek health care (Hall, Dugan, Zheng, & Mishra, 2001;Gilson, 2003, Russell, 2005, encouraging individuals to use services (Gilson, 2003;Russell, 2005), staying with a practice (Junod Perron, Favrat, & Vannotti, 2004), and are closely related to patient satisfaction and adherence to treatment (Birkel & Reppucci, 1983;Hall, Dugan, Zheng, & Mishra, 2001;Lindström & Axén, 2004). This study has found that even in a country such as Sweden, with universal access to health-care, poor trust in the health care system is significantly associated with poor self-rated health.…”

IntroduçãoNos últimos anos, o conceito de "capital social" tem sido utilizado na literatura internacional em uma vasta gama de disciplinas entre as quais: sociologia, antropologia, educação, economia, ciências políticas, criminologia e saúde pública. Trata-se de um conceito desafiador, pois incorpora o freqüentemente negligenciado "social" com o onipotente "capital". Capital social enfatiza o fato de que formas e relações não-monetárias podem ser importantes fontes de poder e influência 1 .Sua proeminência recente, na área da saú-de, é simultânea ao momento em que a epidemiologia está passando por uma profunda revisão crítica de suas próprias capacidades para capturar fenômenos sociais 2 . A literatura corrente também evidencia que, devido ao fato de o conceito ser entendido e avaliado de diferentes formas, muitas críticas têm sido feitas quanto ao seu uso 3,4 .No entanto, um grande e crescente número de pesquisas tem sugerido que capital social favorece a saúde das pessoas. Sociedades com altos níveis de capital social parecem ser mais igualitárias, as pessoas são mais envolvidas na vida pública, vivem mais, são menos violentas e avaliam melhor a sua própria saúde 5,6,7 .O principal objetivo deste artigo é revisar, na literatura epidemiológica, a relação estabelecida entre o conceito de capital social e o pro-

“…There was also the problem of interpreting contradicting findings among the social capital variables examined. For example, where social capital variables were examined separately, 'trust' was often found to be significantly related to the outcome, but social participation variables were not (Lindström & Axén, 2004;Wan & Lin, 2003). This raises questions about the wisdom of combining these different types of variables (cognitive and structural or bonding and bridging) into a summary social capital scale, as was done in several of the articles reviewed.…”

A growing interest in community-level characteristics such as social capital and their relationship to healthcare access is evident. To assess the rigor with which this construct has been empirically applied in research on healthcare access, we conducted a systematic review. A total of 2396 abstracts were reviewed, with 21 ultimately meeting our criteria of examining some measure of social capital and its effects on healthcare access. Our review found a lack of congruence in how social capital was measured and interpreted and a general inconsistency in findings, which made it difficult to draw firm conclusions about the effects of social capital on healthcare access. Insights from the social network literature can help improve the conceptual and measurement problems. We recommend that future work distinguish between bonding, bridging, and linking social capital and their sources and benefits, and that perhaps three dimensions of social capital actually existcognitive, behavioral, and structural.
