Abstract
Reward motivation was examined via the Effort-Expenditure for Reward Task. Anhedonia reduced reward motivation, but action control did not act as a buffer at low levels of anhedonia. Additionally, there was no anhedonia x anxiety interaction, which may be due to the high level of overlap in anxiety and anhedonia.
