요약 | Social anhedonia, or lack of pleasure from social situations, is a common feature among different forms of psychopathology. Specifically, social anhedonia appears in individuals with a schizophrenia spectrum disorder as well as those at genetic and/or psychometric risk for the later development of a schizophrenia diagnosis. Social anhedonia is a negative symptom that is not specified currently in the DSM-5. Research shows that we see higher levels of social anhedonia in individuals with schizophrenia spectrum disorders compared with controls regardless of age or gender of the sample. Given these differences, this meta-analysis examined the role of social anhedonia in schizophrenia to see if it may be better described as a core characteristic or symptom of the disorder rather than a common feature. I conducted a meta-analysis of 45 studies looking at social anhedonia scores in schizophrenia spectrum patients and psychometric and genetic high-risk samples compared with controls. The overall effect size was very large, g = 1.14, across all studies, revealing that individuals in the schizophrenia risk group scored higher on measures of social anhedonia than did those in the control group, by a substantial amount. Although some moderators showed significant effects, all effect sizes in all categories of studies were large. These findings suggest that social anhedonia is a core characteristic or symptom of a schizophrenia spectrum diagnosis and could be a useful target for treatment and prevention strategies. Further implications of the findings are discussed. |
