How many people do we know? Dissemination article of a CIS research led by Miranda Lubbers

Date: 
14.11.2019
Abstract: 

Spanish citizens know a median of 536 people each, although the number varies widely between individuals, from a few dozens up to almost 6,000. The research presented in this article shows that factors such as age, gender, education and income influence the number of acquaintances we have. Furthermore, having more acquaintances can help people receive types of support that we usually relate with our closest ties.

The dissemination text that Observatorio la Caixa published on the basis of the academic article can be found here
