Social connection as a critical factor for mental and physical health: evidence, trends, challenges, and future implications (2024)

Holt-Lunstad, Julianne. World Psychiatry, 23(3), 312-332. DOI 10.1002/wps.21224

This authoritative review synthesises the cumulative evidence base linking social connection to mental health, physical morbidity and mortality, and documents societal trends toward greater disconnection. It provides the project with a conceptual three-component framework (structure, function, quality), a worked taxonomy of relevant terms, risk-profile matrices, and a set of national-strategy recommendations. The paper is the single most comprehensive mapping of why and how social network health matters for population outcomes, and it names the gap between scientific evidence and public perception as a priority design problem.
