目的：本研究旨在探讨工作中的社会资本与员工抑郁症状之间的关系。研究方法：这项横断面研究的数据是通过在线调查收集的，调查对象是德国信息和通信技术领域六家公司的全体员工（回复率：58.4%）。进行多因素logistic回归分析。结果如下：结果表明，从328名员工的数据表明，控制后的社会人口因素，健康意识，工作压力，较低水平的感知社会资本在工作中与抑郁症状的经验（OR = 0.76; 95%CI：0.64-0.90）。结论：我们的研究结果表明，工作中高社会资本的特征，如建立信任的环境和共同的价值观和信念，可能是预防抑郁症的重要资源。
Objective: This study examines the association between social capital at work and depressive symptoms in employees. Methods: Data for this cross-sectional study were collected through an online survey with the full population of employees from six companies in the German information and communication technology sector (response rate: 58.4%). A multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed. Results: Results of data from a total of 328 employees suggest that, after controlling for sociodemographic factors, health awareness, and job strain, lower levels of perceived social capital at work are associated with the experience of depressive symptoms (OR = 0.76; 95% Cl: 0.64-0.90). Conclusions: Our findings suggest that characteristics of high social capital at work, such as an established environment of trust and a sense of common values and convictions, could be an essential resource for preventing depressive disorders.
