    Author: Bjarnar E, Melsom R, Reppesgaard H, Astrup C.
    Journal: Acta Psychiatr Scand; 1975 Jan; 51(1):19-27. PubMed ID: 1114922.
    Abstract:
    The psychiatric morbidity of Berlevaag in Northern Norway (71 degrees North) was studied in 1944 by Bremer. A follow-up and a re-examination of the persons in the community was initiated in 1972. Preliminary data suggest that the prevalence of psychoses is practically the same in 1973 as in 1944. Various registers have provided a fairly complete count of psychoses even before the onset of an intensive field study. Only a minor part of the non-psychotic psychiatric disorders appears to have been identified.
