As part of a genetic study of schizophrenia, symptoms were studied in 50 Bethlehem Palestinian patients with schizophrenia, 61 Israeli Negev Bedouins with schizophrenia and 63 Israeli Galilee Arab patients with schizophrenia. The content and character of the schizophrenic psychosis was significantly different in the three groups studied. While all three groups are Arabic speaking Muslims, their social circumstances differ and this could explain the differences in clinical phenomenology of schizophrenia. The results may relate to differences in clinical phenomenology of schizophrenia reported in different areas of the world. schizophrenia, Bedouin, Palestinians, genetics, psychiatry
