The inability to experience pleasure, anhedonia, is recognized as a hallmark symptom of depression. An instrument developed for the assessment of hedonic capacity is the 14-item, self-report, Snaith–Hamilton Pleasure Scale, but its psychometric properties have not been adequately evaluated. The current study examined the reliability and validity of the SHAPS using a large sample of adult outpatients with major depressive disorder (MDD). Data for the current study were obtained from 461 adult outpatients with a diagnosis of MDD who participated in Project IMPACTS. Internal consistency of the SHAPS was assessed using Cronbach’s coefficient alpha. A Principal Factor Analysis was used to define the dimensionality of the SHAPS. Convergent and discriminant validity was assessed by evaluating the Pearson correlations between the SHAPS total score and the pleasure/enjoyment item of the IDS-C30, QLES-Q, HRSD17, IDS-C30, QIDS-C16, and MADRS10, respectively. The internal consistency of the SHAPS was .91. A one-factor solution emerged for the SHAPS (eigenvalues of the first two initial factors were 5.95 and 0.43, respectively). Pearson correlations revealed a positive linear relationship between the SHAPS total score and the total scores on the HRSD17 (r = .49, p<.0001), IDS-C30 (r = .56, p<.0001), QIDS-C16 (r = .55, p<.0001), and MADRS10 (r = .53, p<.0001). The SHAPS total score was negatively correlated with the QLES-Q (r = -0.65, p<.0001). The current study shows that the SHAPS is a reliable, valid, and unidimensional instrument to assess hedonic capacity in adult outpatients with MDD.
