Br J Psychiatry
. 2008 Nov;
193(5):424-5.
PMID: 18978327
The time course of brain activation prior to onset of auditory/verbal hallucinations was characterised using functional magnetic resonance imaging in six dextral patients with schizophrenia. Composite maps of pre-hallucination periods...

. 2008 May;
39(2):87-90.
PMID: 18450175
Auditory/verbal hallucinations (AVHs) are comprised of spoken conversational speech seeming to arise from specific, nonself speakers. One hertz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) reduces excitability in the brain region stimulated....

Br J Psychiatry
. 2007 Oct;
191:355-6.
PMID: 17906248
Atendency to extract spurious, message-like meaning from meaningless noise was assessed as a risk factor leading to schizophrenia-spectrum disorders by assessing word length of speech illusions elicited by multispeaker babble...

. 2007 Jul;
33(5):1066-70.
PMID: 17631618
The "social brain" of humans reflects widespread neural resources dedicated to understanding the conversational language, emotionality, states of mind, and intentions of other persons. A social deafferentation (SDA) hypothesis for...

17(11):2733-43.
PMID: 17298962
Functional magnetic resonance imaging and repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) were used to explore the pathophysiology of auditory/verbal hallucinations (AVHs). Sixteen patients with schizophrenia-spectrum disorder were studied with continuous or...

58(2):97-104.
PMID: 15936729
Background: Auditory hallucinations are often resistant to treatment and can produce significant distress and behavioral difficulties. A preliminary report based on 24 patients with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder indicated greater...

113(3):245-54.

Arch Gen Psychiatry
. 2003 Jan;
60(1):49-56.
PMID: 12511172
Background: Neuroimaging studies suggest that auditory hallucinations (AHs) of speech arise, at least in part, from activation of brain areas underlying speech perception. One-hertz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) produces...
