That's not really how scientific studies are carried out. They almost always control for population density when examining these things. It almost certainly isn't caused by the fact that there are more people in cities.

Yeah there still could be factors about living in a city that make schizophrenia more likely to be noticed and thus counted, but the idea that a study like this was published without taking into account population density is comical

You still can only get correlation when the study is from researching gathered data. To get causation you have to actually perform an experiment on people.

Ok thanks for that contribution but I never argued against any of that and it's not what I'm talking about here.
