The confident attitude, reciprocity, ethics and values in the complex relationships among members in organizations is represented by social capital. It’s understood by the collective aptitude to make decisions and to act jointly to pursue common goals, placing a specific group of people in a superior level in relation to the individual. Its theoretical and documented analysis allows us to identify it as social, productive relationships among members of the groups. Within this framework a study was conducted to identify the conceptual theoretical axis of this social capital, as can be seen in rural organizations. To obtain these results, a content analysis derived from three axis was made including the following: structural, relational and that of resources. All these axis allowed to identify the rural organization and the dynamics of the above mentioned as it relates to social capital in these types of organizations.

This paper shows the results of the research which aims to analyze the relationship between domestic abuse and suicidal ideation among adolescent students of public and private schools from Tunja, Duitama and Sogamoso through a descriptive correlational study. 676 studends who were intentionally selected through non-probability sampling were involved. The questionnaire PANSI (Osman, Gutiérrez, Kopper, Barrios & Chiros, 1998) was applied to determine the suicidal ideation and to establish the presence of domestic abuse. The results show a correlation of 0,173 indicating a weak relationship. These results do not support the conclusion that domestic abuse is a predictor for suicidal ideation, but it can be presented as a risk factor.
