First-admission rates to psychiatric hospitals, and data from certain psychiatric case registers suggest that there may have been a substantial decline in the administrative incidence of schizophrenia in recent years. However, data from the Nottingham case register show that rates for first-onset schizophrenia remained stable between 1975 and 1987. It is suggested that variations in trends between different parts of the UK may be partly explained by differences in the proportion of migrants and their children in the population at risk.
精神病院的首次收治率以及某些精神病病例登记数据表明，近年来精神分裂症的行政发病率可能大幅下降。然而，诺丁汉病例登记数据显示，1975年至1987年间首次发作的精神分裂症发病率保持稳定。有人认为，英国不同地区趋势的差异可能部分是由于高危人群中移民及其子女的比例不同。
