Main Article Content
Abstract
Sociology has demonstrated the significant significance that cultural influences play in the basic processes of social structure, even beyond these behavioral features. Recent studies in medical sociology have connected health-related norms, values, and attitudes to socioeconomic class based on social science theory. Furthermore, understanding the origins and effects of health-related practices in society is facilitated by cultural capital. This essay examined the relationship between cultural capital and the promotion of teenage boys' health in Manipur, specifically in the Imphal West District. In addition, it aims to investigate the effects of cultural capital and the promotion of teenage boys' overall health. Using the snowball sampling method, 250 adolescent boys from various Higher Secondary Schools in Imphal West, Manipur, ranging in reading ability from class IX to XII, were chosen for the current study among the teenage boys in the Imphal West District.
