In the past, people would congregate at coffee shops, barbershops, malls and other common areas in the community to take part in their social benefits of conversation and camaraderie.

We\u2019ve observed people caring about other people on the piers and the birds and the water quality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Having established that these sorts of social interactions improve the empathy of individuals, Fly says the next step for her research team will be to examine other third places still in operation to get a clearer picture of what society may be losing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOne of our Ford Scholars did research on women\u2019s experiences in online fishing communities and the sorts of nasty harassment that they received in the virtual spaces,\u201d Fly recalls. \u201cThey did not experience that sort of behavior in person.
