Isolasi sosial

Isolasi sosial adalah pemisahan suatu hal dari hal lain atau usaha untuk memencilkan manusia dari manusia lain. Keadaan tersebut berbeda dari kesendirian, yang merefleksikan kurangnya kontak temporer dan sukarela dengan manusia lain di dunia. Isolasi sosial dapat menjadi masalah bagi orang-orang dari berbagai usia, meskipun dampaknya dapat berbeda menurut kelompok usia.
