Abstract

Epidemiological studies with regard to shizophrenia encounter differences in nozological concepts, refinement of symptomatological description, etc. The WHO international pilot study of schizophrenia has succeeded in providing a reasonalby reliable tool for a unified evaluation of patients' present state. However, the combination of the present state examination with the case history will give better possibilities for a delimitation of a group of schizophrenics which is meaningful for the determination expectancy figures for schizophrenia. Techniques for converting prevalence and incidence figures into expectancies are described.
