Superior facial emotion recognition in adolescents with anorexia nervosa – A replication study

“…Compared to adults, adolescents with AN are at a relatively early stage of the disorder. Thus, one could assume that impairments in facial emotion recognition may develop with prolonged illness duration, which is also supported by a negative association between illness duration and recognition accuracy for afraid faces in the present sample of adolescents with AN as well as negative correlations between AN illness duration and complex emotion recognition reported in previous studies (e.g., Calvo Sagardoy et al, 2014;Zegarra-Valdivia & Chino-Vilca, 2018; but see also, e.g., Kucharska et al, 2016). However, given the cross-sectional design of the present study and the association being only a trend, the assumption that emotion recognition abilities deteriorate in the course of the illness remains speculative.…”

“…adults with AN regarding basic (Zonnevylle-Bender et al, 2004b) andcomplex (Calvo Sagardoy et al, 2014) emotion recognition. None of them reported differences between adolescents and adults, with one study reporting impairments in both age groups (Zonnevylle-Bender et al, 2004b) and no relationship between emotion recognition accuracy and illness duration and the other reporting no impairments but a correlation between recognition accuracy and illness duration (Calvo Sagardoy et al, 2014). No conclusions can be drawn based on these heterogeneous results and additional, systematic studies are necessary.…”

“…Nevertheless, again, these associations remained only related to the DIF and DDF subscales, whereas EOT appeared to have no significant associations with such measures. The association between alexithymia and internalizing symptoms has been repeatedly reported, in particular related to depression-related symptoms (De Berardis et al, 2010, Di Schiena, Luminet, & Philippot, 2011Sagardoy, Solórzano, Morales, Kassem, & Codesal, 2014), and functional somatic disorders (Allen, Qian Lu, Tsao, Hayes, & Zeltzer, 2011;Luyten et al, 2011;Jones et al, 2013). Nevertheless, it is important to consider that even though we found these associations, general measures of distress like internal izing and externalizing symptoms, are affected by a complex range of elements and cannot be reduced to bivariate analyses.…”

“…Among them, depression-related symp toms (Di Schiena, Luminet, & Philippot, 2011;Sagardoy, Solórzano, Morales, Kassem, & Codesal, 2014), anxiety (Bratis et al, 2010), interpersonal problems such as cold/distant and nonassertive social functioning (Hesse & Floyd, 2011;Humphreys, Wood, & Parker, 2009;Meins, Harris-Waller, & Lloyd, 2008;Vanheule, Desmet, Meganck, & Bogaerts, 2007), functional somatic disorders (Allen, Qian Lu, Tsao, Hayes, & Zeltzer, 2011;Jones et al, 2013;Luyten et al, 2011), and executive dysfunction (Koven & Thomas, 2010) have been broadly studied.…”
