Researchers Explore What Happens When People Hear Voices That Others Don't
People who hear voices — both with and without a diagnosed psychotic illness — are more sensitive than other subjects to a 125-year-old experiment designed to induce hallucinations. And the subjects’ ability to learn that these hallucinations were not real may help pinpoint those in need of psychiatric treatment, suggests a new Yale-led study published Aug. 11 in the journal Science.
People with schizophrenia and other psychotic illnesses often report hearing voices, but so do other people with no diagnosed psychiatric disorder. Philip Corlett, an assistant professor of psychiatry, and Al Powers, a clinical instructor in psychiatry, wanted to identify factors that contribute to auditory hallucinations and to tease apart what makes some people’s experiences troubling and others’ benign.
“Hallucinations may arise from an imbalance between our expectations about the environment and the information we get from our senses,” said Powers, the study’s lead author. “You may perceive what you expect, not what your senses are telling you.”

“In both clinical and non-clinical subjects, we see some of the same brain processes at work during conditioned hallucinations as those engaged when voice-hearers report hallucinations in the scanner,” said Corlett, senior author of the study.
In a previous study, the researchers showed that a group of self-described voice-hearing psychics had similar voice-hearing experiences as patients with schizophrenia. Unlike patients, however, they tended to experience these voices as positive and reported an ability to exert more control over them.
The new experiment also used computational modeling to differentiate people with psychosis from those without. People with a psychotic illness had difficulty accepting that they had not really heard a tone and exhibited altered activity in brain regions that are often implicated in psychosis. These behavioral and neuroimaging markers may be an early indication of pathology and could help identify those who are in need of psychiatric treatment, the authors said.

Contrary to popular notions of people who are uneducated and don’t read very much because its boring to research the government Federal and State are lock step to experiment using anything they want which includes implanted devices, for those who think such things are unbelievable your not the only one who feels that such things are unbelievable that they exist but that they do exist; here is what John Glenn stated in a speech that says that the general public is being experimented on all the time and he is shocked.
Dear Reader,
For those of you who innocently do not believe that the government is actively
experimenting on the public at large may I draw yor attention to the following :
SPEECH BEFORE THE UNITED STATES SENATE
“Mr. GLENN. Madam President, if I approached any Senator here and I said, ‘‘You did
not know it, but the last time they went to the doctor or went to the hospital, your wife or
your husband or your daughter or your son became the subject of a medical experiment
that they were not even told about. They were given medicine, they were given pills, they
were given radiation, they were given ->somethingsomething<- I put the marks around it to accentuate it, it means ANYTHING, any procedure which means brain simulators, pain stimulation devices, cochlear (ear hearing) devices, micro cameras in the retina, tracking devices brainwave recorders for reconstructing what the thoughts of a person. The government is inherently evil because they love money over our Bill of Rights and have made laws that bend, twist and break our civil rights to their satisfaction. So when a person is hearing a voice it is no guarantee their mind is producing it, check carefully with a camera and light behind the ears for any sign of a scar you may be a victim of an egomaniac official making money on your bones.

Or a victim of silent sound and other voice to skull technology. They are trying to hide tech instead of use it to benefit mankind. This tech is real and has been used in stores for advertisements. Learn history and observe people. Commercial use was banned to keep it out of the public’s eye.
What about when you hear your own name and your alone ?
THEY GET HUNG LIKE HILLARY WILL BE!
