“…Mette, Maurice, & John pointed out that interpersonal stress was significantly correlated with mental pain, somatic symptoms, while social networking can moderate the relationship between interpersonal stress and psychological distress [32]. Individuals with high levels of social anxiety tend to expect negative evaluation by others in interpersonal situations, and are therefore likely to interpret neutral evaluation as negative evaluation, and consequently to worry about this [33].…”

In this study, the relationship between social anxiety, coping style and loneliness amongst left-behind children was investigated. The participants were 773 left-behind children recruited from 8 junior middle schools in rural areas of Zhejiang Province in China who completed the Social Anxiety Scale for Children, Simplified Coping Style Questionnaire and Children's Loneliness Scale. Results show that there was a moderate correlation between social anxiety and loneliness, and these variables had a significant negative relationship with positive coping style and a significant positive relationship with negative coping style. Furthermore, the left-behind children's social anxiety, coping style and loneliness were different within specific demographic groups, such as gender, only child status and different type of parental work. Also negative coping style moderated the association between loneliness and social anxiety, so that children who were more likely to use negative coping strategies showed a stronger relationship between social anxiety and loneliness. Finally, the left-behind children's social anxiety not only directly predicted their loneliness, but also had an indirect effect mediated by their copying style.

“…The authors hypothesized that an individual's health outcomes are intertwined with their stress levels and social environments. The study also found that individuals with lower levels of stress experienced stronger social connectedness and increased physical activity (Aanes et al, 2010).…”

“…The cut points for stress management measure were determined by the distribution of the data. Interpersonal relationships involve using communication to achieve a sense of intimacy and closeness in meaningful relationships with others (Aanes et al, 2010). Communication involves sharing thoughts and feelings through verbal and nonverbal messages (Aanes et al, 2010).…”

The aim of this study was to assess the changes of health behaviors in college students as they transition through their freshman year. The author surveyed 167 freshmen, ages 18 to 25, to examine the effects of physical activity on the stress management, interpersonal relationships, and alcohol consumption in college freshmen. The participant’s responses were at baseline to 3-month outcome and 3-month to 6-month outcome. The Health-Promoting Lifestyle Profile-II questionnaire and the Daily Drinking Questionnaire examined the health behaviors and drinking consumption. Students with moderate physical activity had nearly half the odds of better stress management as compared with students with higher physical activity. However, this result was not statistically significant, OR = 0.49, 95% CI = [0.24, 1.01], and OR = 0.52, 95% CI = [0.25, 1.29]. Few studies have evaluated physical activity and the health behaviors of stress management, interpersonal relationships, and alcohol consumption in college students. This study can provide further understanding of health promotion behaviors in college students.

“…Stress can, in turn, result in increased feelings of loneliness (Aanes et al 2010, 2011). As a consequence of stress associated with the experience of having a parent with health limitations, children may have an increased need and desire for a supportive social network.…”

We investigate how daughters’ feelings of loneliness are impacted when widowed parents develop health limitations, and when daughters take on personal care tasks in response. Using longitudinal data from daughters of widowed parents drawn from the French Family and Intergenerational Relationships Study (ERFI, 1485 observations nested in 557 daughters), we assess (a) whether health limitations of widowed parents are associated with daughters’ feelings of loneliness regardless of whether or not daughters provide personal care and (b) whether there is an effect of care provision on loneliness that cannot be explained by parental health limitations. Fixed effect regression analyses show that widowed parents’ health limitations were associated with raised feelings of loneliness among their daughters. No significant additional effect of providing personal care to a widowed parent was found. Prior research on the impact of health limitations of older parents on the lives of their adult–children has focused mostly on issues related to informal caregiving. Our findings suggest that more attention to the psychosocial impact of parental health limitations—net of actual caregiving—on adult children’s lives is warranted.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (10.1007/s10433-018-0459-2) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
