- A central image of this perspective is of developmental trajectories (e.g., health) and social convoys (e.g., relationships) intertwining over long periods to make up the individual life course (Elder et al. 2003). In this spirit, our review suggests that social ties and health behavior unfold in tandem over the entire life course.

Aug 1, 2010 · In this spirit, our review suggests that social ties and health behavior unfold in tandem over the entire life course. Understanding this unfolding process is an essential step toward explaining how social ties ultimately influence health. Health does not inevitably and irrevocably decline with age.

Wide-ranging research suggests that strong social ties are linked to a longer life. In contrast, loneliness and social isolation are linked to poorer health, depression, and increased risk of early death.
Although the basic assumption of this research is that social ties promote healthy behavior and deter risky behavior, ample evidence shows that social ties can also lead to risky health behavior (Christakis & Fowler 2007, Taylor & Repetti 1997).
Jun 1, 2013 · Considerable research has shown strong relationships between social ties and health. Neural regions that process basic survival threats facilitate health-relevant physiological stress responses. Threats to social connection activate neural regions that process survival threats and elicit physiological stress responses. Neural regions that ...
