Associations between changes in physical activity and perceived social exclusion and loneliness within middle-aged adults: longitudinal evidence from the German Ageing Survey
In: BMC Public Health, Band 23, Heft 1
Previous research showed negative associations between physical activity and loneliness in older adults. However, information on associations among middle-aged adults is scarce. In this prognostic factor study, we investigated if starting or stopping to follow the WHO physical activity recommendations was associated with changes in perceived social exclusion and loneliness in this age bracket.
