Muscle Disorders And Other Causes

  • Facial paralysis, such as after a stroke or from other muscle disorders, can give someone the appearance of a flat affect.
  • People with Parkinson’s disease may experience hypomimia, more commonly known as a “masked face.” This refers to a progressive decline in facial expression, which can manifest as a flat affect.
  • A flat affect is considered a “negative” symptom of schizophrenia, which means there’s an absence of a certain emotion or behavior.
