In this study, we are trying to learn more about the symptoms of psychosis, specifically to learn how alterations in the brain may produce certain experiences (including voice hearing or auditory hallucinations) that are common in people with psychosis or schizophrenia. The study involves clinical interviews, computer tests, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans. The study will be conducted at Columbia University Medical Center and Zuckerman Mind Brain Behavior Institute.
