Lewis (1989) dismisses a large number of articles in which schizophrenic winter birthrate excesses have been reported as the result of either design problems or the age-incidence artifact. We review about 20 studies in which the effects of age incidence have been controlled in one way or another. The majority support the conclusion that the seasonality effect is due neither to artifact nor deficient research design. We also correct two significant errors in Lewis' description of our prior work.
刘易斯（1989年）驳回了大量报告精神分裂症冬季出生率过高的文章，认为这些结果要么是设计问题，要么是年龄发病率假象导致的。我们回顾了约20项研究，其中年龄发病率的影响已以某种方式得到控制。大多数研究支持这样的结论，即季节性效应既不是假象也不是研究设计缺陷所致。我们还纠正了刘易斯对我们先前工作描述中的两个重大错误。
