Change in anhedonia symptoms per the SHAPS is the primary outcome, and secondary outcomes include change in core depressive symptoms, apathy, sleep problems, life quality, anxiety and side effects. (researchgate.net)
A team led by scientists at UCL, the University of Cambridge and the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience at King's College London carried out a study examining whether cannabis users show higher levels of apathy (loss of motivation) and anhedonia (loss of interest in or pleasure from rewards) when compared to controls and whether they were less willing to exert physical effort to receive a reward. (theglobalpulse.com)
Cannabis users scored slightly lower than non-users on anhedonia-in other words, they appeared better able to enjoy themselves-but there was no significant difference when it came to apathy. (theglobalpulse.com)
The researchers also found no link between frequency of cannabis use and either apathy or anhedonia in the people who used cannabis. (theglobalpulse.com)
In general, adolescents tended to score higher than adults on anhedonia and apathy in both user and non-user groups, but cannabis use did not augment this difference. (theglobalpulse.com)
Dopamine1
Researchers theorize that anhedonia may result from the breakdown in the brain's reward system, involving the neurotransmitter dopamine. (wikipedia.org)
Inability6
While earlier definitions emphasized the inability to experience pleasure, anhedonia is currently used by researchers to refer to reduced motivation, reduced anticipatory pleasure (wanting), reduced consummatory pleasure (liking), and deficits in reinforcement learning. (wikipedia.org)
The prevalence of musical anhedonia, the inability to derive pleasure from music, is estimated to be around 5% of the general population. (jdcrockorchestra.org)
Musical anhedonia, which refers to the inability to experience pleasure from music, is a fascinating phenomenon that affects a portion of the population. (jdcrockorchestra.org)
This phenomenon is referred to as "specific musical anhedonia" and refers to an inability to derive pleasure from music. (jdcrockorchestra.org)
Depression permeates all areas of life and makes its every aspect seemingly less important and valuable - it is accompanied by anhedonia, i.e. the inability to experience joy. (icas.pl)
Reduced motivation1
Anhedonia is a diverse array of deficits in hedonic function, including reduced motivation or ability to experience pleasure. (wikipedia.org)
Symptoms3
In PTSD patients, scales measuring these symptoms correlate strongly with scales that measure more traditional aspects of anhedonia, supporting this association. (wikipedia.org)
Given its mechanism of action, pramipexole might be a useful treatment for a depression subtype characterised by significant anhedonia and lack of motivation-symptoms associated with dopaminergic hypofunction. (researchgate.net)
Depression3
a number of studies have reported reduced activity in the OFC in schizophrenia and major depression, as well as a direct relationship between reduced activity and anhedonia. (wikipedia.org)
We recently showed, in an open-label pilot study, that add-on pramipexole is a feasible treatment for depression with significant anhedonia, and that pramipexole increases reward-related activity in the ventral striatum. (researchgate.net)
Methods and analysis Eighty patients with major depression (bipolar or unipolar) or dysthymia and significant anhedonia according to the Snaith Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS) are randomised to either add-on pramipexole or placebo for 9 weeks. (researchgate.net)
Schizophrenia1
The term 'schizophrenia' literally means "splitting of the mind" and was coined in 1910 by Swiss psychiatrist Paul Eugen Bleuler. (millenniumpost.in)
Affective1
Anhedonia has also been used to refer to "affective blunting", "restricted range of affect", "emotional numbing", and "flat affect", particularly in the context of post-traumatic stress disorders. (wikipedia.org)
Symptom2
While the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems, Tenth Revision (ICD-10) does not explicitly mention anhedonia, the depressive symptom analogous to anhedonia as described in the DSM-5 is a loss of interest or pleasure. (wikipedia.org)
Anhedonia is a common residual symptom associated with treatment resistance as well as low function and quality of life. (researchgate.net)
Absence2
In Chapter 2 I discuss a daily diary study in which I replicate this finding and additionally find a link between avoidant attachment and social anhedonia, the absence of pleasure derived from social interactions (Chapman, et al. (yale.edu)
The consciousness of reward-related processes has also been used to categorize reward in the context of anhedonia, as studies comparing implicit behavior versus explicit self-reports demonstrate a dissociation of the two. (wikipedia.org)
Cannabis1
I've also cut down significantly on my cannabis consumption, leading to a kind of anhedonia that I've just begun to overcome. (dissensus.com)
People5
Anhedonia occurs in roughly 70% of people with a major depressive disorder. (wikipedia.org)

Anhedonia met with the people who came to see here for headaches and husbands and wars began to me. (schooltube.com)
People in love have particularly high levels (hence it has been coined the "love molecule") as do long-distance runners - partly explaining the anti-depressant effect of exercise. (simplyvital.com)
Negative1
Value co-destruction is pitched as a reverse concept to VCC-another side of the same coin (Plé, 2017)-capturing how interactions, practices, and resource integrations between actors might have negative impacts on value formation. (researchgate.net)
Clinical1
Studies in clinical populations, healthy populations, and animal models have implicated a number of neurobiological substrates in anhedonia. (wikipedia.org)
Component2
In the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5), anhedonia is a component of depressive disorders, substance-related disorders, psychotic disorders, and personality disorders, where it is defined by either a reduced ability to experience pleasure, or a diminished interest in engaging in pleasurable activities. (wikipedia.org)
Potential Genetic Component: Research has suggested a potential genetic component to musical anhedonia. (jdcrockorchestra.org)
Measure1
Participants completed questionnaires to measure anhedonia, asking them to rate statements such as "I would enjoy being with family or close friends. (theglobalpulse.com)
Experience joy1
But because a coin is always two-sided, the gift of no longer worrying was accompanied by the incapacity to experience joy. (eraofcare.net)
