The correlation between Schizophrenics/Schizoaffective people and computer programming

I’ve noticed a lot of us on this website are into computers, coding, programming etc.

And I must say I think that’s rad!

The more I learn about computer programming the more I love it.

I wonder if there’s any scholarly articles out there about the correlation between those who have sz/sza and computer work. :thinking:

This is Montezuma’s thought of the day. :smile:

Thank you for reading, :v: :clap:.

I think we just have more time for creative endeavors like programming and art. Many people irl that I know are programmers but some have become teachers or doctors… If I were busy I wouldn’t be back in programming…

Could be that we do have more time to pursue these kinds of goals.

I am just sort of fascinated by how a lot us sort of gravitate towards this field/hobby.

They are solitary goals, so it makes sense.

I think it is more related to the schizoid personality, those with that are much more likely to be interested in cold and isolated disciplines like programming, mathematics and philosophy.
But if we consider schizophrenics, not many of them are able to pursue these interests because of negative and cognitive symptoms.
