This research abstract makes explicit the fact that anhedonia (the

biological underpinnings in defects of the mesolimbic dopamine system

Sensitivity to the rewarding effects of food and exercise in the eating
disorders.

### This article in unfortunately not available on-line at my institution.
The abstract does not contain any clear statements supporting your claims.
Can you quote specific results from the article, excluding any role for the
cortex in anhedonia (not merely pointing to mesolimbic involvement, which I
do not deny)?
