Schizophrenia assessment

Begins late adolescence/young adulthood onset before puberty is rare.


Children and young adolescents are likely to exhibit only precursor symptoms such as social withdrawal acting-out behavior language and speech delays and academic problems



Hallucinations are the most common symptom in early onset schizophrenia.



Onset of symptoms is most often gradual.



17% of children ages 9 to 12 and 7.5% of adolescents report non psychotic hallucinations especially hearing voices. Many of these move into adult life without experiencing mental illness however early psychotic symptoms maybe risk markers for other forms of pathology including mood behavior and anxiety disorders their risk of actual psychotic illness is likely to be several times that of a person in the general population.(p. 219, Morrison & Flegel)
