Intervention studies further indicate a bidirectional relationship between affect and social connectedness . One study in individuals with anxiety or depressive disorders found that performing acts of kindness (e.g., helping others) significantly reduced NA [15] and two others found that increasing PA led to subsequent increases in social ...
