The functional psychoses in Afro-Caribbeans.

I Harvey1, M Williams, P McGuffin, B K Toone.   

Abstract

When 54 Afro-Caribbean and 49 white British consecutive psychotic in-patients were prospectively studied for clinical differences in course of illness and pattern of symptoms, no major differences were found. This does not support the hypothesis that misdiagnosis within the psychoses can explain the higher admission rates of schizophrenia calculated for Afro-Caribbean populations.
