Social isolation is consistently found to be a risk factor associated with key well-being indicators, such as how quickly people heal from physical ailments, how well they maintain cognitive health as they age and how long they live. While academic literature has long validated the importance of human connections, there has been little research that provides representative, multinational data on how connected people feel and how they connect with others. More governments, organizations, and companies are turning their attention to understanding the nature and impact of people’s social connections, driving heightened interest in, and need for, such research. <br><br> To address this gap, Gallup, Meta and a group of academic advisors collaborated to design and conduct the State of Social Connections Study, which offers a first look at how social connections vary across different geographic regions. This report describes results from a detailed survey administered through face-to-face or phone interviews with people ages 15 and older in seven countries spanning diverse global regions. 000000047 912__ $$aSurvey respondents were obtained through nationally representative probability sampling. 000000047 913__ $$aPeople aged 15+ in the 7 countries covered by the study. 000000047 915__ $$aprobability 000000047 918__ $$aData weighting was used to minimize bias in survey-based estimates to ensure samples were nationally representative for each country.
