Using an Arabic version of the PSE, supplemented by CATEGO, we selected 48 patients with acute schizophrenia from the population of the Najd region of Saudi Arabia. Their life-event histories for the six months before onset or relapse were compared with those of 62 control subjects. A positive association between events and onset was established only for married women, although there was a parallel trend for men and single women suffering their first schizophrenic episode. The observed impact of life events was limited to the three weeks before onset. These findings are discussed in the light of Saudi culture.
我们使用阿拉伯语版的《Present State Examination》（PSE），并辅以《CATEGO》，从沙特阿拉伯纳季德地区的人群中选取了48例急性精神分裂症患者。将他们发病或复发前六个月的生活事件史与62名对照受试者的生活事件史进行了比较。仅在已婚女性中发现事件与发病之间存在正相关，尽管首次发作精神分裂症的男性和单身女性也有类似趋势。观察到的生活事件影响仅限于发病前的三周。根据沙特文化对这些发现进行了讨论。
