P> α 0,05) on the welfare of the elderly. The value of R = 0.191 indicates a very weak relationship between social capital and social supportto the elderly welfare. Contribution influenced of social capital and social support to the elderly welfare is only 3.6persen (R2 = 0.036). The rest of 96.4 persen are caused by other factors not included in the variables of this study.
