Purpose: The purpose of the this study was to examine the mediating effect of resilience on the relationship between social capital - family, school, and community - and self-rated health in adolescents. Methods: The study is a secondary data analysis based on a cross-sectional design, using the data of 2016 Korean Children and Youth Panel Survey (KCYPS). The study analyzed the data of 2,001 adolescents by descriptive analysis, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation coefficients and structural equation modeling, using the SPSS and AMOS program. Results: The model's fit was adequate ($x^2/df=4.51$, CFI=.98, RMSEA=.04, SRMR=.02). The adolescents' social capital - family, school and community - had direct effects on their self-rated health. Resilience was found to play a partially mediating role in accounting for self-rated health. Conclusion: Resilience partially mediated the relationship between social capital and self-rated health in adolescents. Based on the results of this study, nursing strategies to build and strengthen social capital at the family, school and community level and to promote resilience are needed to improve the health of adolescents.
