Description

<p>This study examined how anxiety regarding the COVID-19 pandemic affects loneliness. We conducted a longitudinal survey of Japanese adults aged 20 to 79 years (N =941), who were assessed twice (Time 1 in December 2020 and Time 2 in August 2021). The results of a cross-lagged effects model showed that anxiety levels recorded at Time 1 predicted loneliness levels at Time 2. These results indicate that people who feel anxious about the COVID-19 pandemic will tend to become lonely.</p>
