Background: Urban and rural populations have different rates of psychotic illness. If psychosis exists as a continuous phenotype in nature, urban-rural population differences in the rate of psychotic disorder should be accompanied by similar differences in the rate of abnormal mental states characterized by psychotic or psychosislike symptoms. Methods: A random sample of 7076 individuals aged 18 to 64 years were interviewed by trained lay inteviewers with the Composite International Diagnostic Interview. Approximately half of those with evidence of psychosis according to the Composite International Diagnostic Interview were additionally interviewed by clinicians. We investigated associations be tween a 5- level urbanicity rating and (1) any DSM-III-R diagnosis of psychotic disorder (sample prevalence, 1,5%), (2) any rating of hallucinations and/or delusions (sample prevalence, 4.2%),and (3) any rating of psychotic or psychosislike symptoms (sample prevalence, 17.5%). Results: Level of urbanicity was associated not only with DSM-III-R psychotic disorder (adjusted odds ratio [OR] over 5 levels, 1.47; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.25-1.72), but also. independently, with any rating of delusion and/or hallucination (adjusted OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.17-1.40; clinician-assessed psychotic symptoms only: OR, 1.30; 95% CI, 1.03-1.64) and any rating of psychosislike symptom (adjusted OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.13-1.24), Psychotic symptoms were strongly and independently associated with psychotic disorder, regardless of the level of urbanization. Conclusions: Community level of psychotic and psychosislike symptoms may be inextricably linked to the prevalence of psychotic disorder. The prevalence of abnormal mental states that facilitate development to overt psychotic illness increases progressively with level of urbanization.
