This study tested the hypothesis that schizophrenic men experience a poorer course than schizophrenic women. A representative sample from Hannover, FRG, including 278 first admission DSM-III schizophrenics, were followed for three years. Findings demonstrated that schizophrenic women experience fewer rehospitalizations, shorter lengths of stay, and survive longer in the community than schizophrenic men. Implications of the role of gender for schizophrenia are discussed.
精神分裂症男性患者的病程比女性患者更差。对来自联邦德国汉诺威的一个代表性样本进行了为期三年的跟踪研究，该样本包括278例首次入院的DSM-III精神分裂症患者。研究结果表明，与精神分裂症男性患者相比，女性患者的再次住院次数更少、住院时间更短，并且在社区中的存活时间更长。文中讨论了性别在精神分裂症中的作用所带来的影响。
