Abstract

Lewine (Psychol. Bull., 90: 432-444, 1981) has proposed sex differences, specific to schizophrenics, in age at first psychiatric hospitalization, age at first reported symptoms, and premorbid social competence. To evaluate Lewine's hypothesis we collected data on 64 schizophrenic and 30 nonschizophrenic psychiatric outpatients. As no interaction between sex and diagnostic groups was found, our data failed to demonstrate sex differences specific and unique to schizophrenia. It is possible that Lewine's evidence is due to a cultural artifact.

摘要

莱温（《心理学公报》，第90卷：第432 - 444页，1981年）提出，精神分裂症患者在首次精神科住院年龄、首次报告症状的年龄以及病前社会能力方面存在特定的性别差异。为了评估莱温的假设，我们收集了64名精神分裂症患者和30名非精神分裂症精神科门诊患者的数据。由于未发现性别与诊断组之间存在交互作用，我们的数据未能证明精神分裂症所特有的性别差异。莱温的证据有可能是由文化假象导致的。
