[[Risk-benefit analysis|Risk]] factors for [[schizophrenia]] include the [[Seasonal affective disorder (patient information)|season]] of [[birth]] (late winter, early spring, summer) and [[genetic]] predisposition.

Overview

Risk factors for schizophrenia include the season of birth (late winter, early spring, summer) and genetic predisposition.

Risk Factors

The following are associated with increased risk of schizophrenia:[1]

  • Place of growing up:

Prenatal

Social

  • Living in an urban environment has been consistently found to be a risk factor for schizophrenia.[4]
  • Social disadvantage has been found to be a risk factor, including poverty and migration related to social adversity, racial discrimination, family dysfunction, unemployment or poor housing conditions.[5][6]
  • Childhood experiences of abuse or trauma have also been implicated as risk factors for a diagnosis of schizophrenia later in life.[7][8]
  • Parenting is not held responsible for schizophrenia but unsupportive dysfunctional relationships may contribute to an increased risk.[9]
