The temporal relationship between social adaptation and depression: based on cross-lagged network analysis
This study provides valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying the interplay between SA and depression, elucidating the pivotal role of SI in this complex dynamic. The findings suggest that efforts to mitigate depression and enhance social adaptation among older adults should explicitly account for individuals' levels of social isolation in order to design more targeted and effective mental-health interventions.
