My research topic is "Lonely decisions" and it explores the idea that people experiencing loneliness may make choices that unintentionally deepen their isolation. The research aims to understand whether feelings of loneliness influence decision-making in ways that reinforce a cycle of disconnection, creating a feedback loop where loneliness leads to behaviors or decisions that make it harder to break free from that isolation. By examining this potential pattern, the study seeks to uncover if loneliness can perpetuate itself through the decisions individuals make in their daily lives.
