dc.description.abstractApathy is a multidimensional neuropsychiatric condition characterized by a reduction in goal-directed behavior, cognition, emotion, or social interaction, with significant clinical implications in both neurological and psychiatric disorders. Despite its prevalence, apathy has traditionally been viewed as a secondary symptom of other pathologies. This article offers a historical and conceptual review of apathy, tracing its evolution from early philosophical ideas of emotional detachment to its current status as a transdiagnostic construct. The review examines the gradual emergence of apathy as a distinct syndrome, emphasizing contributions from psychiatry and neurology. Key concepts such as abulia, anhedonia, akinetic mutism, athymhormia, and avolition are discussed to illustrate the shifting boundaries between these terms. Drawing from historical and modern perspectives, the article explores the semantic evolution of apathy-related terms and their convergence in current diagnostic frameworks. It also addresses ongoing clinical challenges in detecting and differentiating apathy from overlapping syndromes. Ultimately, this review advocates for recognizing apathy as an independent syndrome with distinct neurobiological foundations, emphasizing its importance in behavioral neuroscience and clinical neuropsychiatry.en
