Social Withdrawal measures a person's tendency to detach from social contact, keep to themselves, and prefer limited company or solitude. It encompasses felt isolation, difficulty finding or wanting companionship, privacy, and a self-description as solitary or a loner.

Bands

Minimal Social Withdrawal

Expressions activating this band show little to no social detachment, with attention directed toward everyday preferences, relationships, or general life attitudes rather than pulling away from others. Social contact is available or neutrally regarded, and solitude is not a defining theme.

Low Social Withdrawal

Expressions activating this band show mild social distance marked by self-reliance, intermittent isolation, or selective comfort with familiar others. Companionship remains accessible, but connection feels somewhat limited, uneven, or less preferred.

Moderate Social Withdrawal

Expressions activating this band show clear social detachment through loneliness, privacy, boredom with gatherings, or difficulty finding others to join activities. Solitude and reduced social engagement are present as recurring personal experience.

High Social Withdrawal

Expressions activating this band show a pronounced pattern of being apart from others, including wanting to be left alone, playing alone, or feeling alone in one's interests and ideas. Social separation appears as a stable interpersonal style rather than an occasional feeling.

Severe Social Withdrawal

Expressions activating this band show a strong, enduring preference for being alone and keeping to oneself, often framed as enjoying solitude or identifying as solitary or a loner. Social contact is actively de-emphasized in favor of one's own company.
