“…No consistent relation between overall rates Thus, of the seven studies which reported rates of phychosis and social class was found. As of schizophrenia by class, five (Bremer, 1951; Table 1 shows, the highest rate of psychosis Brugger, 1931Brugger, , 1933Helgason, 1964 The results for age in Table 2 show that the minimum rate of psychosis, usually zero, is associated with the youngest group in 10 of the 14 studies, but is also found at varied periods in the middle and later years. The maximum rate appears in all cases either before age 40 or after age SO.…”

“…Moreover, there is no clear difference according to sex for schizophrenia and manic-depressive psychosis. Three studies reported highest rates of schizophrenia for males (Akimoto et al, 1942;Brugger, 1933;Tsuwaga et al, 1942), and three for females (Bremer, 1951;Brugger, 1931;Helgason, 1964). Four studies (Akimoto et al, 1942;Bremer, 1951;Helgason, 1964;Tsuwaga et al, 1942) reported higher rates of manic-depressive psychosis for males, and two for females (Brugger, 1931(Brugger, , 1933.…”

Community studies which have attempted to count untreated as well as treated cases of psychological disorder were analyzed for rates of psychosis, neurosis, and personality disorder according to age, sex, and social class. Psychosis as a whole is not consistently related to any of these variables, but schizophrenia and manic-depressive psychosis may be related to social class in different ways. Rates of neurosis are consistently higher for females than for males. Rates of personality disorder are higher for males and highest in the lowest social class. These results are examined for the light they throw on the etiology of the 3 types of disorder.

An epidemiological census investigation on severe mental retardation among children under 15 years were carried out on July 1, 1970, in the community of Aarhus. Case finding procedures are described in detail. One hundred and seventy-one severely retarded children were found in total population of 233,162 with 50,667 children under 15 years. The age-specific prevalence rate was 3.38 per 1,000. About 20% of the severely retarded children are not registered in the Danish National Mental Retardation Service when they reached school age. One third of the children are under residental care, but only half of these are in subnormality hospitals while the other half reside in waiting homes. Among 64% living at home, two thirds receive day-care or training. Comparisons are made especially with two other prevalence surveys, one covering the same area, and the other identical in methods.

Die Punktprävalenzraten für die neurotischen Störungen zeigen ein widersprüchliches Bild.…”
