评估已发表的根据特定标准诊断的精神分裂症患者报告的应激性生活事件的频率和性质,并与对照组成员报告的研究进行比较。与生活事件和精神分裂症研究特别相关的方法论问题也被考虑。确定了三个研究设计:精神分裂症患者与其他精神病人的比较,精神分裂症患者与正常人的比较,以及复发精神分裂症患者与未复发精神分裂症患者的比较。没有研究发现精神分裂症患者报告的事件比其他患者组更多。关于精神分裂症患者和正常人报告的事件频率,研究结果并不一致。复发的精神分裂症患者报告的事件比未复发的精神分裂症患者多。总体而言,研究证据表明,生活事件和精神分裂症发病之间的关系比临床文献所表明的要弱,尽管方法上的限制目前还无法得出确切的结论。(参考文献31)
Assesses published studies of the frequency and nature of stressful life events reported by schizophrenic patients, diagnosed according to specified criteria, in comparison with those reported by members of control groups. Methodological problems that are particularly relevant to the study of life events and schizophrenia are also considered. Three study designs are identified: comparisons of schizophrenic with other psychiatric patients, of schizophrenics with normals, and of relapsed with nonrelapsed schizophrenics. No study found more events reported by schizophrenics than by other patient groups. Findings are inconsistent regarding event frequencies reported by schizophrenics and normals. More events were reported by relapsed than by nonrelapsed schizophrenics. Overall, the research evidence indicates a weaker relationship between life events and schizophrenia onset than the clinical literature suggests, although methodological limitations preclude firm conclusions at this time.(31 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
