Schizophrenia

...ba href=/schizophrenia/a/b spectrum disorder or a nonalcohol substance use disorder and less likely to receive a diagnosis of a depressive or anxiety disorder, compared with white patients.

After adjusting for sociodemographic and care setting/payment factors, differences in rates of ba href=/schizophrenia/a/b spectrum disorders were no longer statistically significant; African Americans also remained more likely to be diagnosed as having a nonalcohol substance use disorder (odds ratio=1.8, 95% CI=1.09–3.03); and African American men remained less likely than white men to be diagnosed as having bipolar disorder (odds ratio=0.26, 95% CI=0.09–0.80) or anxiety disorders (odds ratio=0.35, 95% CI=0.14–0.85).

No differences in adjusted rates of ba href=/schizophrenia/a/b, depression, bipolar, or anxiety disorders were observed for Hispanic patients compared with white patients.

Conclusions: Psychometric validation of patients’ diagnoses and current symptoms is needed to understand the extent to which these observed racial/ethnic differences in diagnoses may reflect differential patterns of detection in routine psychiatric practice.
