まとめ
社会的孤立と孤独 (SIとLON) は記憶に大きく影響し,孤独はより有害であると認識されています. これらの組み合わせは 有害なフィードバックループを生み出し 脳の健康への介入の必要性を強調しています
科学分野:
- 心理学
- 神経科学
- 公衆衛生
背景:
- 社会的な孤立 (SI) や孤独 (LON) といった心理的社会的な要因が 認知障害と結びついている証拠が増えています
- ほとんどの研究は,SIとLONを独立して調べており,特に定性研究では,記憶に対するそれらの結合効果は十分に研究されていない.
研究 の 目的:
- 社会的孤立と孤独が 中高年および高齢の人の記憶に どのように影響するかを 質的に探求すること
- SI,LON,またはその両方に関連した明確な心理社会的ニーズを特定し,臨床およびコミュニティの介入を改善します.
主な方法:
- 混合方法の研究の定性的な部分
- 10人の参加者 (47歳から81歳) との半構造面接で,意図的なサンプル採取を行いました.
- 記述的現象学によるテーマ分析.
主要な成果:
- LONは精神的な刺激の動機を低下させるので,参加者は一般的にLONはSIよりも記憶に害があると考えました.
- 延長されたSIは 社会的不安,日常の混乱,目的意識の低下のために 有害である可能性があります.
- SIとLONの組み合わせは最も有害であり,有害なフィードバックループを作り,不健康な行動のリスクを増やすと考えられました.
結論:
- SI,LON,またはその両方を経験する個人に明確な指標と心理的ニーズがあります.
- 発見は脳の健康に対する より正確なスクリーニングと介入トリアージを 支持しています
- 社会的つながり,目的,認知的刺激,健康的なライフスタイルに取り組むマルチモダルの介入は不可欠です.

Deindividuation is a form of social influence on an individual’s behavior such that the individual engages in unusual or non-normal behavior while in a group setting. Why? Because in these group settings, the individual no longer sees themselves as an individual anymore, disinhibiting their behavior and personal restraint.

Autobiographical Memory

Autobiographical memory is a unique type of episodic memory that involves recollecting personal life experiences. It allows individuals to remember significant events from their past, creating a narrative of their lives. One interesting phenomenon related to autobiographical memory is the reminiscence bump. This effect refers to the tendency of adults to recall more events from their second and third decades of life — typically between ages 10 to 30 — than from other periods. This...

The Sense of Self: Reflected Self-Appraisal and Social Comparison
51.4K
According to Charles Cooley, we base our image on what we think other people see (Cooley 1902). We imagine how we must appear to others, then react to this speculation. We don certain clothes, prepare our hair in a particular manner, wear makeup, use cologne, and the like—all with the notion that our presentation of ourselves is going to affect how others perceive us. We expect a certain reaction, and, if lucky, we get the one we desire and feel good about it. But more than that, Cooley...

Structuralism

Structuralism, an early psychological theory developed by Wilhelm Wundt and his student Edward Bradford Titchener, sought to dissect the human mind into its most fundamental components. Wundt's groundbreaking work in his laboratory set the stage for Titchener to define structuralism's goal as cataloging the "atoms" of the mind—sensations, images, and feelings—akin to how chemists identify elements of matter.

Empathy

Some researchers suggest that altruism operates on empathy. Empathy is the capacity to understand another person’s perspective, to feel what he or she feels. An empathetic person makes an emotional connection with others and feels compelled to help (Batson, 1991). Empathy can be expressed in several ways, including cognitive, affective, and motor.

Bonanno's Theory of Grieving
155
Grieving is a complex psychological and emotional process that varies significantly among individuals. George Bonanno's research on bereavement identified four distinct patterns of grieving, offering a nuanced understanding of how people cope with significant loss, such as the death of a spouse, over extended periods. These patterns — resilience, recovery, chronic dysfunction, and delayed grief — highlight the diversity in emotional responses and adaptive mechanisms.
