Overview
Risk factors for schizophrenia include the season of birth (late winter, early spring, summer) and genetic predisposition.[1]
Risk Factors
- Season of birth:
- 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]
