项目摘要

Positive social relationships, particularly at a young age,are critical for later health and wellbeing. Social isolationoccurs when there is a severe lack or absence of socialrelationships and interpersonal connections. This isolationhas been explored in older populations and has beenassociated with implications for both mental and physicalhealth. There has been little focus on the impact ofprolonged social isolation in childhood, at a stage of lifewhere emotional and behavioral development is shaped forlater years. Research has shown that there is a substantialgenetic predisposition for social isolation, thus longitudinalassessment of social isolation in childhood whilstcontrolling for genetic influence is needed. This approachcan help clarify the impact that social isolation has on laterlife outcomes in four key domains of mental health,physical health-related behaviours, educational attainmentand employment, and criminal offending. The use of theEnvironmental Risk Longitudinal Twin Study of 2232 twinpairs assessed at ages 5, 7, 10, 12 and 18 years willprovide valuable information on social isolation at varioustime points throughout childhood and assess how theserelate to health outcomes at age 18. Results from theproposed project will help inform interventions and copingstrategies at an early age to help reduce social isolation inyoung children and subsequently reduce the likelihood ofmental and physical health problems in later life.

积极的社会关系，特别是在年轻时，对以后的健康和幸福至关重要。社会孤立发生在严重缺乏或缺乏社会关系和人际关系的时候。这种隔离已经在老年人群中进行了探索，并与精神和身体健康的影响有关。儿童时期长期的社会孤立的影响很少受到关注，而儿童时期是一个情感和行为发展为以后几年塑造的阶段。研究表明，社交孤立有一个实质性的遗传倾向，因此需要在控制遗传影响的同时对儿童时期的社交孤立进行初步评估。这种方法可以帮助澄清社会孤立对心理健康、身体健康相关行为、教育程度和就业以及刑事犯罪四个关键领域的晚年结果的影响。环境风险纵向双胞胎研究对2232对双胞胎在5岁、7岁、10岁、12岁和18岁时进行评估，将提供有关儿童期不同时间点社会隔离的有价值信息，并评估这些信息与18岁时健康状况的关系。从拟议的项目的结果将有助于通知干预和应对策略在早期的年龄，以帮助减少社会孤立的幼儿，并随后减少精神和身体健康问题的可能性在以后的生活。
