AbstractIt is difficult to judge or predict the dangerousness of a psychiatric patient in many countries. The study in China suggested that schizophrenics have high incidents of dangerous behaviour with the first few week of hospitalization. Factors like past violent behavior, specific psychiatric symptoms and the combined factor of duration and time could predict dangerous behaviour of patients.
