Scoring Instructions:
Loucks et al. (2006) scored as follows: Married (no = 0; yes = 1); close friends and relatives (0–2 friends and 0–2 relatives = 0; all other scores = 1); group participation (no = 0; yes = 1); participation in religious meetings or services (less than or equal to every few months = 0; greater than or equal to once or twice a month = 1). The latter two categories were mutually exclusive from each other. Scores were summed: 0 or 1 being the most isolated category; and 2‚ 3‚ or 4 formed the other three categories of increasing social connectedness.
0 = None‚ 1 = 1 or 2‚ 2 = 3 to 5‚ 3 = 6 to 9‚ 4 = 10 or more‚ 9 = Unknown
