0 = none 1 = one 2 = two 3 = three or four 4 = five thru eight 5 = nine or more
5. How many friends do you feel at ease with that you can talk about private matters?
0 = none 1 = one 2 = two 3 = three or four 4 = five thru eight 5 = nine or more
6. How many friends do you feel close to such that you could call on them for help?

LSNS-6 total score is an equally weighted sum of these six items. Scores range from 0 to 30
The suggested clinical cut point of <12 for the entire scale is easy to calculate and to
comprehend and could be used in practice to identify those clients in need of additional
assessment. In addition, the three relatives questions constitute a sub-scale and the three
friends/neighbors questions constitute a sub-scale. For each of these, the clinical cut point
is < 6. Such cut points are also useful for targeting interventions to those deemed at higher
risk for social isolation. Whereas the overall LSNS-6 clinical cut point is suggestive of
social isolation, the two subscales taken separately could indicate whether limited family
or non-kin ties or both are requiring attention.
