“Our findings emphasise that rather than a risk factor or an outcome, social isolation is aetiologically intertwined with the experience of poor mental health.” New research by @KTNThompson published online today in @ESCAPonline doi.org/10.1007/s00787…

How does social isolation overlap with mental health problems in young people? Our new paper tested longitudinal genetic and environmental influences that are shared and specific to these experiences in the @ERiskstudy #OpenAccess (thrilling 🧵 below!!) doi.org/10.1007/s00787…

As someone who knew from an early age I would never be Thelonious Monk, I promised to share this in lieu of taking part. Study in search of participants who can improvise on the piano 🎶 🎹 🎶

"A billion $ #loneliness industry has emerged, ready to provide anti-loneliness products to those at a loss as to how to manage their loneliness, an industry that benefits from loneliness being depicted as ‘spreading dangerously through the population’, contagious & unstoppable".

Excellent work @briddycent ! The health and economic consequences of loneliness have gained increasing attention from the public and policymakers in recent years with US Surgeon General highlighting loneliness as a threat to economic prosperity in his recent advisory statement

Our research is one of few studies reporting on the impact of loneliness years later. We need longitudinal data to unravel the long-term outcomes of loneliness at various stages of life. Published earlier today in @socscimed @SGDPCentreKCL @ERiskstudy doi.org/10.1016/j.socs…
