Abstract

Correction to: Scientific Reportshttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-11315-4, published online 03 May 2022 The original version of this Article contained errors. In the original version of this Article, the p values in the Results section were swapped. “Results from the mixed-effects model showed a significant independent relationship between Loneliness and Social Activity Frequency with Close Contacts, b = − 0.385, p = 0.544, C.I.95% = [− 0.688; − 0.082], but not between Loneliness and Social Activity Frequency with either Intermediate Contacts, b = − 0.096, p = 0.086, C.I.95% = [− 0.408; 0.215], or with Distant Contacts, b = 0.263, p = 0.013, C.I.95% = [− 0.038; 0.564]. These results indicated that greater social interaction frequency with close contacts was associated with lower loneliness, but social interaction frequency with intermediate or distant contacts was not associated with lower loneliness.” now reads, “Results from the mixed-effects model showed a significant independent relationship between Loneliness and Social Activity Frequency with Close Contacts, b = − 0.385, p = 0.013, C.I.95% = [− 0.688; − 0.082], but not between Loneliness and Social Activity Frequency with either Intermediate Contacts, b = − 0.096, p = 0.544, C.I.95% = [− 0.408; 0.215], or with Distant Contacts, b = 0.263, p = 0.086, C.I.95% = [− 0.038; 0.564]. These results indicated that greater social interaction frequency with close contacts was associated with lower loneliness, but social interaction frequency with intermediate or distant contacts was not associated with lower loneliness.” In addition, the Data Availability section was omitted. It now reads, “Data availability The study’s Open Science Framework can be found at https://osf.io/yfz3n/.” The original Article has been corrected.
