Abstract
Psychiatric patients (44) were separated into 4 groups on the basis of presence/absence of hallucinations and reactive/process status. Reactive hallucinators were singularly impaired in 2 aspects of cognitive processing: tolerance of ambiguity and availability of alternative meanings. The perceptual errors produced by premature judgment and limited consideration of alternative meanings for misperceptions are discussed as factors predisposing to auditory hallucination.This publication has 18 references indexed in Scilit:
