Montreal Neighbourhood Networks and Healthy Aging study
The Montreal Neighbourhood Networks and Healthy Aging study (MoNNET-HA) was established with three main objectives:
(i) To assess the added value of using formal network measures of social capital to study the relationship between social capital and health;
(ii) To examine whether older adults are more vulnerable to social network and neighbourhood environmental influences on health; and
(iii) To assess the influence of social capital on health longitudinally.
