Marguerite Beattie; Noona Kiuru; Katariina Salmela-Aro – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2025
While loneliness for short periods of time is normal, prolonged loneliness has severe health risks.

Pearce, Ellie; Barreto, Manuela; Victor, Christina; Hammond, Claudia; Eccles, Alice M.; Richins, Matthew T.; O'Neil, Alisha; Knowles, Megan L.; Qualter, Pamela – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Previous experimental work showed that young adults reporting loneliness performed less well on emotion recognition tasks (Diagnostic Analysis of Nonverbal Accuracy [DANVA-2]) if they were framed as indicators of social aptitude, but not when the same tasks were framed as indexing academic aptitude. Such findings suggested that undergraduates…

Tsang, Vivian H. L.; Tse, Dwight C. K.; Chu, Li; Fung, Helene H.; Mai, Chunyan; Zhang, Hanyu – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022

Hawkley, Louise C.; Buecker, Susanne; Kaiser, Till; Luhmann, Maike – International Journal of Behavioral Development, 2022
Prior research in non-U.S. samples has found a complex nonlinear relationship between loneliness and age. This research has shown that established predictors of loneliness--poor health, being unmarried, living alone, and having infrequent social interactions--help to explain age differences in loneliness. However, while some variables were found…

The current study examined cross-lagged effects and…
