最近的科学工作为社会关系对健康的因果影响建立了理论基础和强有力的经验证据。控制基线健康状况的前瞻性研究一致表明，社会关系数量少，有时质量低的人死亡风险增加。对人类和动物的实验性和准实验性研究也表明，社会隔离是各种原因造成死亡的主要风险因素。社会关系影响健康的机制以及促进或抑制社会关系发展和维持的因素仍有待探讨。
Recent scientific work has established both a theoretical basis and strong empirical evidence for a causal impact of social relationships on health. Prospective studies, which control for baseline health status, consistently show increased risk of death among persons with a low quantity, and sometimes low quality, of social relationships. Experimental and quasi-experimental studies of humans and animals also suggest that social isolation is a major risk factor for mortality from widely varying causes. The mechanisms through which social relationships affect health and the factors that promote or inhibit the development and maintenance of social relationships remain to be explored.
