NongChik District, Pattani Province. Background and significance of the problem. Schizophrenia is the most prevalent disease. It is estimated that around 1-1.5% of the world population. And the incidence of the disease is about 2.5-5: 1000 people per year (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 1995, cited in Kankook Sirisathien, 2007). The number of outpatients receiving services from mental health services increased from 1,022,504 in 2009 to 1,055,548 and 1,0912,646 in FY 2010 and 2011, respectively. (Department of Mental Health, 2011). It can be seen that the rate of mental illness is likely to increase. And still a major public health problem. The loss of the economy and resources of the country, while the number of personnel involved, such as psychiatrists, psychiatric nurses and other personnel. There are insufficient resources to drive care for schizophrenic patients at home (Suchitra Nampai, 2005). Schizophrenia is a disorder characterized by emotional, behavioral and perceptual symptoms. The two groups are characterized by positive and negative symptoms. The disease progresses chronically and severely. There are 3 stages. Prodominal phase, active phase, and residual phase (Mannos, Laytrakul, and Pramote Suksanit, 2005). The schizophrenia often not cured. Patients will have chronic disease. Most of the time there is a relapse. They need to be hospitalized periodically. As a result, the family life efficiency of caregivers (caregivers) was significantly declined becayse it takes a long time in caring.

Although it does not catch the world’s attention as much as other conflict cases in the same region, daily violent incidents are ongoing for more than a decade. The violence in the south has multiple causes including historical concerns, economic marginalisation, political and social issues, religious and cultural differences, educational opportunity inequities, and judicial discrimination.

    35 3.2 The second study The second study is entitled “Demographic Determinants for Cesarean Delivery in Pattani Hospital”. This article was published in the Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Medicine and Public Health, 40: 602- 611(2009). The subjects investigated in this study comprised 25,829 women who delivered in Pattani Hospital during the period from 1 October 1996 to 30 September 2005. We considered six demographic determinants of Caesarean section birth, as listed in Table 3.3. We classified mother’s residence into 9 groups, namely, 1: Muang(City) comprising 12 sub-districts of Muang City in Pattani Province, 2: Nong Chik district, 3: Khokpho/Maelan district, 4: Pattani East comprising Panare, Saiburee and MaiKan districts, 5: Yarang district, 6: Pattani South comprising Mayo, Kapo and ThungYanDang districts, 7: Songkhla Province, 8:Yaring district, and 9: Narathiwat Province, Yala Province, and residence not stated. The outcome was the binary variable caesarean delivery. 36 Variable Role Type Religion determinant binary Occupation determinant nominal (6) Education determinant ordinal (5) Age group determinant ordinal (5) Residence determinant nominal (9) Budget year determinant nominal (9) Caesarean delivery outcome binary Table 3.3: Roles and data types of variables in second study Preliminary analysis Figure 3.3 shows caesarean section rate in Pattani Hospital between 1997 and 2005. The overall percentage was found to be 35%. The rate increased from 30.4% to 36.2% in 1997- 2000 with a slight decrease to 34.7% in 2001 and then a gradual increase to 38.8% in 2002 and a decline in final three years.
