Social interaction This measure captures the degree of embeddedness in social networks (clubs, groups, etc.) in terms of the frequency of social interaction within this network. Specifically, this question asks, “Not including attendance at religious services, how often do you attend meetings or programs of groups, clubs, or organizations that you belong to?” The question is coded such that 5 = more than once a week, 4 = once a week, 3 = 2 or 3 times a month, 2 = about once a month, 1 = less than once a month.
