Based on 15 studies, with 23 samples and N = 24,000 subjects, a random effect of r = .188 (CI = .121 to .254) was found, explaining 3.5% of variance on wellbeing in comparison to 1% explained by biculturalism as strategy of acculturation. The impact of social capital is greatest on psychological well-being, medium on mental health, and least on subjective well-being. The impact of subjective cognitive measurements is greater than that of structural and mesosocial measures. The effect is greater in men, in older immigrants and in employees. The results confirm that the social capital seems to play a protective role in migrant populations’ mental health and well-being.La siguiente revisión meta-analítica se centra en la relación entre capital social y salud mental en población migrante. Basados en 15 estudios, con 23 muestras y N = 24,000 individuos, se encontró un efecto aleatorio de r =.188 (IC = .121 a .254) y explica el 3.5% de la varianza en bienestar, frente al 1% de la estrategia de aculturación de biculturalismo. El impacto del capital social es mayor en el bienestar psicológico, medio en la salud mental y menor en el subjetivo. El impacto de las mediciones cognitivas subjetivas es mayor que el de las medidas estructurales y meso sociales. El efecto es mayor en hombres, en inmigrantes de mayor edad y en personas empleadas. Los resultados confirman que el capital social parece desempeñar un papel protector en la salud mental y bienestar de la población migrante.A seguinte revisão meta-analítica centra-se na relação entre capital social e saúde mental na população migrante.
