  • Loneliness is linked to poor outcomes…
  • Psychiatric well-being (e.g., depression)
  • Cognitive health (e.g., dementia)
  • Cardiometabolic health (e.g., obesity, hypertension)
  • Stress physiology (e.g., hormones, inflammation)
  • Health behaviors (e.g., diet, exercise, drinking)
  • Comparable to the effects of high blood

pressure, smoking, obesity, or lack of exercise
