Timothy Matthews completed his PhD at King’s College London. His research focuses on social isolation and loneliness in young people, and their effects on health, functioning and development. He also collaborates on research into victimisation and antisocial behaviour.
Tim Matthews, Molly Bird and Hannah Cocker mark #LonelinessAwarenessWeek with a blog looking at recent research into loneliness and sedentary behaviours in 12-15 year old children.
Timothy Matthews reflects on a scoping review from last year entitled: A life less lonely – the state of the art in interventions to reduce loneliness in people with mental health problems.
