National studies in Scandinavia and in England and Wales have shown that schizophrenic patients are born significantly more often in the early months of the year than would be expected from comparison with the general population. The author examines additional evidence from England and Wales and discusses possible sources of technical error. Although there is currently no evidence of a causal association between season of birth and schizophrenia, he suggests that this possibility should be given consideration.
斯堪的纳维亚半岛以及英格兰和威尔士的全国性研究表明，与普通人群相比，精神分裂症患者在一年中较早月份出生的比例要高得多。作者研究了来自英格兰和威尔士的更多证据，并讨论了可能的技术误差来源。尽管目前没有证据表明出生季节与精神分裂症之间存在因果关系，但他建议应考虑这种可能性。
