Overview
Risk factors for schizophrenia include the season of birth (late winter, early spring, summer) and genetic predisposition.[1]
Risk Factors
- Season of birth:
- Early spring
- Summer
- Winter
- Place of growing up:
- Urban areas
- Genetic predisposition to:
Prenatal
It is thought that causal factors can initially come together in early neurodevelopment, including during pregnancy, to increase the risk of later developing schizophrenia. One curious finding is that people diagnosed with schizophrenia are more likely to have been born in winter or spring, (at least in the northern hemisphere).[2] There is now evidence that prenatal exposure to infections increases the risk for developing schizophrenia later in life, providing additional evidence for a link between in utero developmental pathology and risk of developing the condition.[3]
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[5] and migration related to social adversity, racial discrimination, family dysfunction, unemployment or poor housing conditions.[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]
