Abstract
This study aims to clarify the characteristics of spatial distribution of the percentage of the person who have high score of ISCI (Integrated Social Capital Index), which has been propounded as the measurement of Social Capital. We have calculated the percentage (P6) values of 151 settlements based on the database collected by the questionnaire survey in A city, Kyoto prefecture and adjust the undesirable effects caused by bias of the number of samples using Empirical Bayes approach. It has been made clear that the positive spatial auto correlation of P6's spatial distribution is detected by Empirical Bayes Index.
