Number of Participants in the Early Onset and Not Early Onset-Risperidone Groups Who Show a 50% or Greater Reduction in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score From Baseline or Meet 'a Priori' Specified Criteria for Remission
Time Frame: Week 0 to Week 12
'a priori' specified criteria for remission defined as a score of 3 (mild), 2 (minimal), or 1 (absent) on all of the following 8 PANSS items: delusions, conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, unusual thought content, mannerisms and posturing, blunted effect, passive/apathetic withdrawal, lack of spontaneity and flow of conversation.
Week 0 to Week 12
Number of Participants in the Not Early Onset-Risperidone and Not Early Onset-Olanzapine Groups Who Show a 50% or Greater Reduction in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale Total Score From Baseline or Meet 'a Priori' Specified Criteria for Remission

Week 2 to Week 12
Vital Signs - Mean Change From Baseline to 10 Week Endpoint in Body Mass Index
Time Frame: Week 2 to Week 12
