While we think of older people being more solitary, and thus more lonely, this might not actually be true. 人们都以为老年人孤身一人的时候更多,所以更寂寞,但事实也许不是这样。 According to the work of Julianne Holt-Lunstad, a psychology professor at Brigham Young University in Utah, loneliness is actually at its peak among teenagers and young adults. 美国犹他州杨百翰大学的心理学教授朱莉安娜·郝特-朗斯达的研究指出,实际上,青少年和青年才是最孤独的。 Holt-Lunstad and her colleagues analysed 70 studies, and found that there were stronger risks of loneliness-related illness for under- 65s than over-65s. 郝特-朗斯达和她的同事们分析了70项研究后发现,65岁以下人群患孤独相关疾病的风险比65岁以上人群更高。 |
