L'apathie et les troubles émotionnels dans la maladie de Parkinson et la
schizophrénie
Abstract:
We propose to review the current literature about emotional
disorders and their link to apathy (defined by lack of motivation) in
neuropsychiatric disorders. We further propose to have a deeper
insight into the relationship between apathy and emotional facial
recognition within Parkinson's disease and highlight the cerebral
structures involved. We also propose to use an innovative skin
conductance recording (SCR) deconvolution technique to test
whether apathy si related to tonic SCR activity during joy induction
in schizophrenia.
