Is the grass greener for those at risk of psychosis?

It has become clear in recent years that the incidence of schizophrenia, and of psychosis in general, varies considerably. Thus, the systematic review by McGrath et al. (2004) suggested a five-fold variation in the incidence of schizophrenia, while the very recent EU-GEI study reported that the incidence of psychosis was five times higher in certain of the Northern European sites studied than that in parts of Italy and Spain (Jongsma et al., 2018).
