精神分裂症患者的情感体验和表达

背景:精神分裂症存在情感体验和表达障碍.然而,大多数以往研究往往只局限于情感体验(尤其是快感缺乏)或只针对表达.较少有同时研究精神分裂症患者情感体验和表达.目的:本研究旨在考察精神分裂症患者的快感体验和情感表达.尤其是,特别关注精神分裂症患者的情感障碍(包括快感体验和表达)和阴性症状之间的关系.方法:150例患者完成了愉快情绪体验量表(Temporal Experience of Pleasure Scale)和情感表达量表(Emoitonal Expressivity Scale)的评估.结果:精神分裂症患者表现出快感缺乏,但情感表达的能力完整.以阴性症状为主的精神分裂症患者在期待性愉快体验,尤其是抽象性期待愉快体验上的缺损更为明显结论:研究结果表明,精神分裂症患者存在出快感缺乏,但他们表达情感的能力似乎完好无损.快感缺乏尤以阴性症状为主的精神分裂症患者更为突出.

Pleasure Experience and Emoiton Expression in Paitents with Schizophrenia

Background: Impairments in emotional experience and expression have been observed in patients with schizophrenia. However, most previous studies have been limited to either emotional experience (especially anhedonia) or expression. Few studies have examined both the experience and expression of emotion in schizophrenia patients at the same time. Aims: The present study aimed to examine pleasure experience and emotion expression in patients with schizophrenia. In particular, we specifically examined the relationship between emotion impairments (both pleasure experience and expression) and negative symptoms. Methods: One hundred and fifty patients completed the Temporal Experience of Pleasure Scale and Emotional Expressivity Scale.Results: Schizophrenia patients exhibited deficits in experiencing pleasure, but showed intact reported emotion expression. Patients with prominent negative symptoms showed reduced anticipatory pleasure, especially in abstract anticipatory pleasure. Conclusion:The present findings suggest that patients with schizophrenia have deficits in pleasure experience, while their abilities to express emotion appear intact. Such deficits are more severe in patients with prominent negative symptoms.
