Deficits in affiliative reward: An endophenotype for psychiatric disorders?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 07 September 2005
Abstract
Depue & Morrone-Strupinsky’s (D&M-S’s) model of affiliation meets the criteria advanced for the definition of behavior systems and endophenotypes. We argue that its application in psychiatry could be useful for identifying a biological pathophysiology common to a variety of conditions that are currently classified in very different categories of psychiatric nosography, including autism, schizoid personality, primary psychopathy, and dismissing attachment.
