Abstract

Background: People with severe mental illness have the abili-ty to live a satisfactory and independent life with the help of the community. Their adaptation to life’s challenges is a dynamic process, and the community plays an important role. This research, therefore, aims to address the question of how social capital, demographic factors, and coping strategies affect the com-munity’s ability to adapt to people with severe mental illness. Design and methods: The multi-stage random sampling was used to obtain data from 137 respondents from rural society using an analytic observational design and cross-sectional approach. In addition, the Somers’ D test was used to measure the effect of social capital, demographic factors, and coping strategies on com-munity adaptation. Results: The results showed a significant effect of social cap-ital, demographic factors, and the coping strategy of community adaptation (P<0.05). Based on empirical research, access to social capital is critical in fostering community adaptation through its social participation, network, trust, coping strategies, and cooper-ation. Conclusions: In conclusion, social capital, demographic fac-tors, and coping strategies are significant factors in developing community adaptation of people with severe mental illness.
