To examine the relationship between affect expression and affect recognition, we assessed 30 clinically stable, medicated schizophrenic inpatients. Affect expression was assessed using both a standard clinical rating scale (SANS) and a computerized acoustic voice analysis (VOXCOM). Affect recognition was assessed using the Florida Affect Battery (FAB). The schizophrenics' performance on the FAB was impaired, indicating broad deficits in affect recognition (p<0.05). There were no significant correlations between measures of affect expression and affect recognition, suggesting that the expressive impairment in schizophrenia is not related to their ability to discern emotions in others. SANS Inappropriate Affect, however, was negatively correlated with facial affect recognition (p = 0.001), suggesting that raters' impression of inappropriate affect may indicate a failure in the process of affect attunement.
为了研究情感表达与情感识别之间的关系，我们评估了30名临床症状稳定、正在服药的精神分裂症住院患者。情感表达通过标准临床评定量表（SANS）和计算机化声学语音分析（VOXCOM）进行评估。情感识别使用佛罗里达情感量表（FAB）进行评估。精神分裂症患者在FAB上的表现受损，表明在情感识别方面存在广泛缺陷（p<0.05）。情感表达测量与情感识别之间没有显著相关性，这表明精神分裂症患者的表达障碍与他们辨别他人情绪的能力无关。然而，SANS不适当情感与面部情感识别呈负相关（p = 0.001），这表明评估者对不适当情感的印象可能表明情感协调过程存在失败。
