Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Women who experience socioeconomic disadvantage are often particularly deeply immersed within their social networks, and minority women have been shown to be the most involved in social networks. While social engagement is expected to be positively associated with health, this research investigates how this relationship may be altered across socioeconomic and racial-ethnic group. There may be negative health consequences from the cumulative nature of stress associated with disadvantaged work and family roles. Particularly, provision of support may contribute to women becoming overburdened and compound health risks already present due to economic hardship. A paradox of social relationships may exist, where such relationships may be beneficial for some, but increase health risks for others. I investigate whether lower levels of income and minority status moderate the influence of social capital (measured as social networks, integration, and support) on depression, mobility limitations, and number of health conditions. The sample includes American women age 55-65 in the Health and Retirement Study from 1992-1996. I find a paradoxical relationship, where certain types of social relations do provide health benefits for older women, but for some their relationships with family and friends are detrimental to health. This research on a nationally representative sample of retirement-age women challenges existing notions of social capital and health.
