Abstract
Given the salience of social relationships in adolescence, this study examined associations of social anhedonia with concurrent temperament, psychopathology and interpersonal functioning in a young adolescent sample. Numerous associations were observed, several moderated by sex, with males experiencing greater social anhedonia and more impairment at higher levels of social anhedonia.
