Suffering from one doesn’t mean you suffer from the other
” has highlighted the ways in which the two manifest, and how high and low sufferers of loneliness with fluctuating levels of social anxiety react in a simulated situation. Here’s how the study worked:
The scientists behind it created a game that required the participant to choose between taking a low risk bet, which would award them with a smaller amount of money, or a larger risk bet that could potentially reward them with a higher amount. But if they were to take the higher bet, they would be confronted by a video of someone either praising them for their choice or disapproving of it.
Those with notable levels of social anxiety took the safer bet, as they mostly felt heightened levels of anxiety when confronted with the task. But several of the participants with high levels of loneliness weren’t faced with the same pique in their anxiety levels when faced with the task. Rather than being directly tied to social anxiety, the report suggests that loneliness is more closely linked to “a biased emotional reactivity to negative events rather than social avoidance”.
