However, the relationship between anhedonia severity and the clinical, humanistic, and economic burden among patients with MDD is poorly understood.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Adults diagnosed with depression were identified from the 2022 US National Health and Wellness Survey (NHWS). Participants with depression were recontacted to participate in an online cross-sectional survey to collect data on anhedonia, using the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS). Multivariable analyses assessed the association of SHAPS score with health-related outcomes, while controlling for age, sex, race, comorbidity burden, and insurance status. The SHAPS (score range: 14 to 56) assesses the ability to experience pleasure, with higher scores indicating greater levels of anhedonia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Of the 8270 NHWS respondents with depression who met inclusion criteria, 665 completed the recontact survey (mean age, 58.4\u00a0years; female, 78.3%). Mean SHAPS score was 25.4 (range, 14\u201347). After adjustments for covariates, higher SHAPS scores were significantly (all P &amp;lt;.05) associated with higher levels of depression (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.211) and anxiety (\u03b2\u2009=\u20090.126), poorer mental (\u03b2\u2009=\u2009\u22120.339) and physical health-related quality of life (\u03b2\u2009=\u2009\u22120.178), greater impairment while working [rate ratio (RR)\u2009=\u20091.02], and higher direct medical costs (RR\u2009=\u20091.02).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>In adults with depression, higher levels of anhedonia were associated with greater clinical, humanistic, and economic burden.
