Levels of loneliness, as a subjective feeling, were assessed using a 5-point Likert scale ranging from “not lonely at all” to “extremely lonely.” A previous study using a similar single-item EMA approach to assess momentary loneliness among older adults reported an ICC of 0.75 [44]. In our study, the ICC for the loneliness item was 0.56, indicating moderate agreement [43] and supporting the reliability of this measure for repeated assessments.

Sharing personal stories and a structured social environment that provides opportunities for meaningful engagement that may not happen in a casual social context address loneliness as well. A conceptual model of RT to address loneliness and apathy and how reminiscence may work as an intervention is visually depicted in Figure 1.

Loneliness is also widespread among young people in Hong Kong, occurring at a higher rate than that reported for their counterparts in North America [2]. Around 39% of young people in Hong Kong reported feeling lonely—an increase of 55% from 2012 to 2018 [3]. Furthermore, the prevalence of loneliness rose to 47% among adolescents and young adults in 2020 due to the pandemic [4].

Are Dating App Algorithms Making Men Lonely and Does This Present a Public Health Concern?
Just like Peloton, the home exercise machine company that found a way of appealing to users to use stationary bikes and treadmills, dating apps attracted a vast range of young adults looking for a connection or relationship, at a time when isolation and loneliness was high [3].
At the start of the pandemic, the way the apps were working was quite simple. When two users accepted each other’s profile, they had a match.

Understanding Loneliness Through Analysis of Twitter and Reddit Data: Comparative Study
Because social media and technology are more frequently used by the younger generation, they are helpful for analyzing loneliness. A previous report provided a theoretical explication of loneliness, loneliness informatics, and the gaps in research on the topic of loneliness informatics, that is, the application of informatics tools to study loneliness [5].

Moreover, another national study in China clarified that a high degree of loneliness could further reduce the life satisfaction of older adults [20]. A cohort study from northern and southern Europe showed that loneliness was associated with a decreased quality of life among older adults [21]. Therefore, it is important to pay more attention to older adults’ loneliness and find possible ways to reduce their loneliness.

One assumption regarding the link between PIU and mental health disorders is that PIU is inherently connected to loneliness [25]. Although loneliness is not a specific mental health condition, it is associated with major mental health disorders, including depression and anxiety. The effect of internet use on loneliness remains a subject of debate.
