There's a couple bits of that description that I find interesting, in this context:
As opposed to 'lack of emotional responsiveness' or 'lack of emotions' - in other words, I suspect that the people in question are experiencing emotions, but don't feel any drive to communicate that fact.
This is less clear, but again it reads to me as saying that aboulia is not related to a lack of emotions or emotional awareness. I also note that anhedonia isn't mentioned at all in relation to it.
