Social-connection / isolation audit — Los Angeles.

Los Angeles, CA is home to UCLA, confirmed via WebFetch to Wikipedia: the literal origin of the UCLA Loneliness Scale, developed by researchers Daniel Russell, Letitia Anne Peplau, and M.L. Ferguson and first published in 1978. No honesty-limit caveat needed: UCLA is directly named in this standard's own standard_ref as one of its two named instruments, not an inferred connection. Distinct from the existing Provo tile (Brigham Young University, the Holt-Lunstad meta-analysis's own origin) and Washington DC tile (APS, that meta-analysis citation's journal publisher) -- Los Angeles is this standard's OTHER named instrument's own origin institution, a genuinely distinct real connection from every existing tile. Social isolation carries mortality risk on the order of smoking, and loneliness erodes the felt sense of vitality as much as any physical marker.

$200 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

Completed validated loneliness/social-network instrument with the score, band, and a first concrete connection action, routing significant distress to appropriate support

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

• a validated loneliness/social-network questionnaire
• quiet private space
• a scoring key for the instrument

Steps

1. 1. Administer a validated instrument (UCLA Loneliness Scale or Berkman-Syme Social Network Index) in a private setting.
2. 2. Score it per the instrument's key.
3. 3. Place the score in the instrument's band (e.g., high-loneliness threshold or socially-isolated category).
4. 4. Identify one concrete, low-friction connection action from the result.
5. 5. Log the instrument, score, band, and action; sign it. This is a wellness measure, not counseling.

What counts as done

• A validated instrument (UCLA Loneliness Scale or Berkman-Syme SNI) completed and scored
• Score placed in the instrument's band (e.g., high-loneliness threshold)
• One concrete connection action identified from the result

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
