Overview

Anhedonia has been the most extensively studied in major depression,6 but, as it also constitutes one important negative symptom of schizophrenia, much literature has also been devoted to anhedonia in psychosis. Anhedonia has in fact been studied in a large range of neuropsychiatrie disorders, including substance use disorder, Parkinson's disease, overeating, and various risky behaviors.
