Table 1_Loneliness and smoking status: a pilot study of extended-stay hotel residents in A

A 2026 pilot study of 77 adults aged 23–72 residing in extended-stay hotels in Metropolitan Atlanta, Georgia. The dataset, authored by Naomi Adjei and shared under a CC-BY-4.0 license, contains survey results analyzed to investigate relationships between smoking status and loneliness using the De Jong Gierveld loneliness scale.

Use Cases

• Conducting regression analysis on the relationship between smoking status and loneliness based on survey scale data.
• Investigating gender differences in social loneliness and smoking behavior among a specific housing-insecure population.
• Piloting methodologies for larger longitudinal studies on environmental health risks in non-traditional housing settings.

Strengths

• Includes results from a validated psychological instrument (De Jong Gierveld loneliness scale).
• Focuses on an understudied population (extended-stay hotel residents).
• Provides specific statistical results (B=1.10, p=0.037) for gender differences among smokers.

Limitations

• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• The sample size of 77 adults is small, limiting generalizability as noted in the discussion.
