This is the VOA Special English Health Report.
Loneliness has been linked to depression and other health problems. Now, a study says it can also spread. A friend of a lonely person was fifty-two percent more likely to develop feelings of loneliness. And a friend of that friend was twenty-five percent more likely to do the same.
Earlier findings showed that happiness, obesity and the ability to stop smoking can also spread like infections within social groups.
The findings all come from a major health study in the American town of Framingham, Massachusetts.
The study began in nineteen forty-eight to investigate the causes of heart disease.
Since then, more tests have been added, including measures of loneliness and depression.
The new findings involved more than five thousand people in the second generation of the Framingham Heart Study. The researchers examined friendship histories and reports of loneliness. The results established a pattern that spread as people reported fewer close friends.
For example, loneliness can affect relationships between next-door neighbors. The loneliness spreads as neighbors who were close friends now spend less time together. The study also found that loneliness spreads more easily among women than men.
Researchers from the University of Chicago, Harvard and the University of California, San Diego, did the study. The findings appeared in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology.
The average person is said to experience feelings of loneliness about forty-eight days a year.
The study found that having a lonely friend can add about seventeen days. But every additional friend can decrease loneliness by about five percent, or two and a half days.
Lonely people become less and less trusting of others. This makes it more and more difficult for them to make friends — and more likely that society will reject them.
John Cacioppo at the University of Chicago led the study. He says it is important to recognize and deal with loneliness. He says people who have been pushed to the edges of society should receive help to repair their Social Networks.
The aim should be to aggressively create what he calls a “protective barrier” against loneliness.
This barrier, he says, can keep the whole network from coming apart.

This experiment turns into a pretty emotional one. While some people are unaffected by the discrimination they observe, others are completely offended on behalf of the victim. One man who objects to her treatment can relate because of his own experiences, but other people (two different white women) seem completely offended by the idea that anyone would be treated in such a way.
Consider (though we haven’t talked about this year) what is it about some people that makes them step forward on behalf of a stranger? Some people are content to witness something in their surroundings but are somewhat unaffected by it, while others are compelled to act. What is the motivating factor? Could it have anything to do with each person’s place in Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, maybe? The stronger ones who are higher in the chart, closer to self-actualization, may feel more comfortable stepping forward while others, less secure in themselves and their level of needs, stand back? If the basis for Maslow’s needs is that people act to remove deficiencies or continually move up in the levels, what’s the motivating factor when the person themselves are not in danger? Ie: If you want to move to step three (social needs) and therefore have attained safety / security, would you feel threatened personally if someone near you were in (a type of ) danger like this woman? Or maybe they’re at the fourth level (esteem needs) and taking responsibility of their surroundings.
You may notice, as well, the three things necessary in Motivation: 1) Arousal (something triggers your attention), 2) Direction (a goal-oriented movement to act) and 3) Persistence (affecting the intensity and duraction of your action).
Maybe some people are just especially emotional – is it by their hormones (biological), their mental and emotional empathy for others(Cognitive), or maybe they are just weaker and more insecure than others and threatened by things they see (again… cognitive). What do you think?
You could also reflect on the facial expressions, as seen on the woman’s face before the video plays. She’s very effectively communicating her response.

http://www.KennyAtcheson.com | How to grow your business using Social Networks is a question entrepreneurs, small business owners, mlm, network marketers, and corporations are asking. Unfortunately many of them are using the wrong methods and focusing on the wrong circle. Understanding the four circles is key to networking and growing your business using social networking. I explain the importance of the four circles to anyone that asks me any of the following questions:
How do I grow my business using Twitter?
Can I use Facebook to grow my business?
Is youtube a good way to build my network marketing business?
Understand the sphere of influence.
