- Abstract
The Aim of this study was to identify the existence of significant relationships between structural and functional indicators of personal networks of demobilized individuals and their levels of physical and psychological quality of life. We assessed 37 individuals living in an area of military distension in the Colombian Caribbean using the SF-36 and the ASSIS in a correlational study. The data were examined with Social Network Analysis (SNA) and statistical calculation with the Student t and Pearson correlation coefficients. There were small networks, with high levels of dissatisfaction with social support and low indices of quality of life. There were significant differences in the general perception of support networks and obtaining objective help (p = 0.000) and correlations between levels of social participation in networks and psychological vitality of individuals.
