Increased Bridging Characteristics in Social Networks are Associated with Increasing Amygdala Volume and Grey Matter Density

Abstract: BackgroundSocial connectedness has been linked to decreased rates of cognitive decline particularly among older adults (Fratiglioni et al., 2004). Several studies have demonstrated that access to an expansive network of diverse, and loosely connected individuals (i.e., social bridging) plays a particularly unique role in conferring resilience against cognitive decline (Perry et al., 2021).
