Sažetak	The Civic Engagement Scale measures the extent and type of an individual's participation in civic, political, and community life. Rather than a single construct, it typically encompasses multiple dimensions: electoral participation (voting), political activity (contacting officials, campaign involvement), civic service (volunteering, organizational membership), and social participation (community meetings, neighborhood involvement). Developed by scholars including Zukin, Keeter, and Dalton, it captures how citizens actualize their democratic role.	The Social Capital Index measures the stock of social connections, networks, and civic participation within an individual's or community's social ecosystem. Rooted in the theoretical work of Pierre Bourdieu and popularized by Robert Putnam, social capital encompasses bonding capital (ties within homogeneous groups), bridging capital (ties across different groups), and linking capital (connections to institutions and power). Comprehensive indices assess networks, trust, organizational membership, volunteering, and informal mutual aid.
