Passive sensing of anhedonia and amotivation in a transdiagnostic sample.
Article in Journal of psychopathology and clinical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Anhedonia and avolition are core clinical features of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and major depressive disorder, which have been traditionally assessed using clinical rating scales. However, recent developments in mobile technology allow for measurement of anhedonia and amotivation using passive sensors (e.g., global positioning system and actigraphy) and surveys completed in daily life (i.e., ecological momentary assessment [EMA]). The current study examined associations between clinical rating scales assessing anhedonia and amotivation and passive sensing measures. We aimed to determine the added value of passive sensing measures in explaining variability in clinical interviews, compared to models using EMA alone. We recruited a transdiagnostic sample (schizophrenia = 41, bipolar disorder = 47, and major depressive disorder = 48) to complete an in-person assessment session, as well as a 2-week EMA and passive sensing protocol. Passive sensing measures included physical distance traveled, number of phone calls sent/received, and number of texts sent/received. EMA included the assessment of interest and enjoyment in daily activities. We found that reports of interest/enjoyment in daily activities significantly predicted gold standard, clinical rating scales of anhedonia and avolition across diagnostic groups (standardized β = -0.208,
