2. Age of onset and admission history: Nineteen percent of the entire cases developed the schizophrenic spell beforeage of 19, and 53.8% of them before age of 24. most of the cases had admission history of up to four times.
3. Educational background: Educational level revealed to be low, though there were many instances of withdrawal from schooling because of mental illness.
4. Marital status: There were many unmarried cases among age group over 39. This pattern was interpreted as a result of chronicity of the illness.

6. Parental attitude: A tendency of either tyranical or overpunitive way of rearing by father and overprotective rearing by mother were noticed to be characteristic.
