背景资料：快感缺失是阴性症状维度的一个组成部分，也是精神分裂症的一个核心现象，与社会功能低下有关，对治疗有抵抗力。我们检验了动物辅助治疗（AAT）可能改善快感缺失的假设。目的：使用对照方案，比较犬作为积极参与者（AAT）的心理社会治疗疗程与无犬的可比疗程的效果。方法：10例慢性精神分裂症患者参加了10个每周一次的AAT互动会议的享乐基调进行了比较，对照组治疗没有动物的援助。用Snaith-Hamilton快乐量表测量快乐音调。主观生活质量变量和临床症状也进行了评估。结果：与对照组相比，AAT组表现出明显的快乐情绪改善。他们还表明，在利用闲暇时间和改善动机的趋势有所改善。结论：AAT有助于慢性精神分裂症患者的心理社会康复，提高生活质量。
Background: Anhedonia, a component of the negative symptom dimension and a core phenomenon in schizophrenia, is associated with poor social functioning and is resistant to treatment. We tested the hypothesis that animal-assisted therapy (AAT) may improve anhedonia. Objective: To compare the effect of psychosocial treatment sessions in which a dog was an active participant (AAT) with comparable sessions without a dog, using a controlled protocol. Method: The hedonic tone of 10 chronic schizophrenia patients who participated in 10 weekly interactive sessions of AAT was compared to a control group treated without animal assistance. The hedonic tone was measured with the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale. Subjective quality of life variables and clinical symptoms were also assessed. Results: The AAT group showed a significant improvement in the hedonic tone compared to controls. They also showed an improvement in the use of leisure time and a trend towards improvement in motivation. Conclusion: AAT may contribute to the psychosocial rehabilitation and quality of life of chronic schizophrenia patients.
