Research in the social sciences and social issues has grown exponentially, given that it is difficult to master all aspects of the various issues. Combined research can be used as a useful and useful solution. Feeling happy and cheerful is one of the most essential innate desires and psychological needs of human beings, which is influenced by various factors. The present study was conducted with the aim of quantitatively combining the results of research conducted in the field of the relationship between social capital and happiness in Iran in the years 1390-1398. Using meta-analysis method and comprehensive meta-analysis software (CMA), 18 articles were reviewed. According to the research results, the hypothesis of homogeneity of the studies was rejected and the hypothesis of heterogeneity in the size of the research effect was confirmed. In fact, the relationship between social capital and happiness is different in terms of characteristics and characteristics of studies, and in this situation, modifiers of the research context and the statistical population have been used to determine the variance and location of these differences. In the analysis of the findings, it was found that the average size of the effect of social capital structure on happiness is at a high level, that is, the variable of social capital has been evaluated as an effective factor in happiness in society.

Happiness and joy are among the features that play a fundamental role in social life. Indeed, they have the highest role in improving relations and interactions. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the level of social happiness and the related factors among the citizens of Ahvaz. The research data was collected through survey method, using the self-evaluation questionnaire from a sample of 384 individuals, who were 15-64 year-old citizens of Ahvaz. The sample was selected using multistage random cluster sampling and Cochran formula. Hypotheses were analyzed using Pearson correlation coefficient, multivariable regression, and path analysis. The results of the research indicated that between socioeconomic status (in both subjective and objective dimensions), sense of social justice, social cohesion, social trust, social satisfaction, sense of social security, adherence to religious beliefs, and citizen satisfaction with urban services with social happiness is positive and significant. However, the relationship between sense of relative deprivation and sense of anomie with social happiness is negative and significant. Moreover, the multivariable regression analysis showed that 0.51 of the dependent variable variance could be predicted by the dependent variables.
