The aim of this paper is to clarify these terms using a single framework. We discuss : (1) theoretical orientations from diverse disciplines which we believe are fundamental to advancing research in this areas (2) a set of definitions accompanied by major assessment tools ; and (3) an overarching model which integrates multilevel phenomena. Theoretical orientations that we draw upon were developed by Durkheim whose work on social integration and suicide are seminal and John Bowlby, a psychiatrist who developed attachment theory in relation to child development and contemporary social network theorists. We present a conceptual model of how social networks impact health. We envision a cascading causal process beginning with the macro-social to psychobiological processes that are dynamically linked together to form the processes by which social integration effects health. We start by embedding social networks in a larger social and cultural context in which upstream forces are seen to condition network structure. (...) |
