DESCRIPTION:Background\nSocial productivity activities (such as volunteerin
 g\, parenting) are meaningful roles one may engage in daily life. However\
 , little is known about how (the level of) participating in these roles va
 ry across the life course and their associations with social health such a
 s loneliness and social isolation (SI). The aim of the study is to identif
 y patterns of social productivity roles across adulthood and examine how t
 hey relate to persistent (≥ 2 consecutive waves) and episodic (≥1 non-
 consecutive wave) loneliness and SI.\nMethods\nData were extracted from 15
 \,300 participants aged 18 or over from the Household\, Income and Labour 
 Dynamics in Australia (HILDA) Survey in waves 2022 to 2024. We applied lat
 ent class analysis to six indicators (three domestic roles – caring for 
 young children\, caring for adults with health issues\, doing housework\; 
 three external roles – participating in civic\, altruistic\, or cultural
  activities) to measure patterns of social productivity roles within four 
 age groups (18-25\, 26-44\, 45-64\, ≥65 years). Multinomial logistic reg
 ression was used to examine associations between latent classes and outcom
 es.\nResults\nDistinct social productivity patterns emerged across all age
  groups\, generally characterised by either those with ‘no clear roles
 ’\, ‘active domestic roles\, less-active external roles’ or vice ver
 sa\, and ‘diverse domestic and external roles’. Across adulthood\, ind
 ividuals engaged in diverse external roles were more likely to have better
  health and higher socioeconomic status. Among older adults\, both the no-
 role and sporadic external-role classes had significantly greater risks of
  persistent loneliness and SI than the diverse external-role class. Simila
 r patterns were observed among younger- and middle-aged adults\, where spo
 radic external engagement was associated with higher risks of episodic and
  persistent SI\, while diverse external engagement was protective.\nConclu
 sions\nSocial productivity roles cluster differently across the life cours
 e\, and patterns with diverse external roles are consistently associated w
 ith a lower likelihood of persistent SI. Interventions that promote extern
 al activities alongside domestic roles may reduce chronic social disconnec
 tion across adulthood.
