Abstract
We previously derived a typology of schizophrenia from a latent class analysis of 447 first-contact non-affective functional psychotic patients from a defined catchment area. Here, using the same sample, we show that the three subtypes, ‘neurodevelopmental’ (Type A), ‘paranoid’ (Type B) and ‘schizoaffective’ (Type C) have different premorbid, phenomenological and treatment response characteristics. A canonical variate analysis of the three subtypes achieved partial separation between the first two subtypes, but the ‘schizoaffective’ type was less distinct.
