ABSTRACT
Mental retardation is a
serious illness that disturbs mental alertness of an individual. Hence, little
or no work has been done to investigate the efficiency of the treatment in
psychiatric hospitals. Thus, this research work investigates the efficiency of
the treatment used for the mental disorder in psychiatric hospital, Kazaure,
Jigawa state using two way analysis of variance, data from 2010-2019 on monthly
basis was collected and the results showed that there is statistically
significant difference between the year among both male and female. Also, there
is statistically significant difference between the diagnosis. So, also for the
case of diagnosis we found out that Schizophrenia and depression, depression
and mental retardation, depression and acute psychosis, depression and other
disorders, mental retardation and acute psychosis, mental retardation and other
disorders are statistically significantly different and Schizophrenia and
seizure, Schizophrenia and acute psychosis, Schizophrenia and other disorders,
seizure and acute psychosis, seizure and other disorders, acute psychosis and
other disorders are not by comparison. The year (2014) has the highest cases of
mental disorder and also, the disease (Schizophrenia) has the highest number of
people affected.

CHAPTER ONE
GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Health
is the most vital aspect of living.
Buddha (563-483BC) said that "The secret of health for both mind
and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate
troubles but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly”, it is very
important for growth and development of any nation despite its economic
situation because a healthy nation is a wealthy nation. However, a critical
analysis of health becomes difficult due to lack of proper and consistent
record of health data. And without a reliable health data/record all plans made
based on the incomplete or unreliable data towards improving health condition
of any society will prove abortive. However the impact of mental disorder is
particularly great because it affects mainly the youth. Moreover, this research
work provides information on how the grow than declining and measures so that
individuals can take caution in protecting their health (Lukasson et al, 1992).
Mental disorder or mental illness is a psychological
or behavioral pattern associated with distress or disability that occurs in an
individual and is not a part of normal development or culture. Although there
are variations in the definition, assessment and classification of mental
disorders, currently mental disorders are conceptualized as disorders of brain
circuits likely caused by developmental processes shaped by a complex interplay
of genetics and experience. In other words, the genetics of mental illness may
readily be the genetics of brain development, with different outcomes possibly
depending on the biological and environment context. According to Medilexicon’s
Medical Dictionary, Mental illness is a subnormal development of intellectual
powers, preventing a person from learning normally, looking after himself, etc.
Mental retardation refers to substantial limitations
in present functioning. It is characterized by significantly sub average
intellectual functioning, existing concurrently with related limitations in two
or more of the following applicable adaptive skill areas: communication,
self-care, home living, social skills, community use, self-direction, health
and safety, functional academics, leisure, and work. Mental retardation
manifests before age 18 (Lukasson et al, 1992)
Mental
retardation refers to sub average general intellectual functioning which
originates during the developmental period and is associated with impairment in
adaptive behavior (Bregman, 1991).
Mental
retardation (MR) is a genetic disorder manifested in significantly below
average overall intellectual functioning and deficits in adaptive behavior.
Mental retardation is a particular state of functioning that begins in
childhood and is characterized by decreased intelligence and adaptive skills
and also is the most common developmental disorder (Bregman, 1991).
This research work
provides information on how the grow than declining and measures so that
individuals can take caution in protecting their health.
1.1 Statement of the
Problem
Mental
retardation is a serious illness that disturbs mental alertness of an
individual. Therefore, this study will hopefully give answer to some of the
problems such as: whether the rate of mental disorder is dependent on gender,
types of diagnosis and residences, if type of diagnosis depends on gender. This
research will also contribute to evaluate the efficiency of the treatment used
in its management of the psychiatric hospital at Kazaure, Jigawa state Nigeria.
1.2 Aim and
Objectives
The
main aim of this research is to check the main effect of the treatment of
mental disorder in our population among male and female cases.
1.
To identify whether the
mentally retarded patients increase or decrease in the past 10 years.
2. To
identify the age with highest risk cases.
3. To
identify whether there is significance difference base on gender
4. To
check whether there is a significance difference between the diagnosis of
mental disorder.
This
research work is carried out to evaluate the efficiency of the treatment used
treating mental disorder in psychiatric hospital Kazaure, Jigawa state,
and to check whether there is a significance difference between the diagnosis
of mental disorder within the period under study. This research work will be
beneficial to Kazaure Psychiatric Hospital Jigawa, based on its conclusions,
individual for more research, the Department of Statistics, Jigawa State
Polytechnic, Dutse and Nigeria at large.
This research is beneficial to the Kazaure psychiatric
Hospital Jigawa and the neighboring state, based on the fact that the data used
in this research is strictly from the record unit of the Centre before the
commencement of the research. In the case of mental disorder there are various
common and serious mental problems which may be interested to investigate their
various causes and types such as the rate of mental disorder is dependent on
gender, diagnosis and residences, also to check whether there is a significance
difference between the diagnosis.
