Hearing a voice in the noise: auditory hallucinations and speech perceptionA Vercammen
BCN Neuroimaging Center, University Medical Center Groningen, The Netherlands
Psychol Med 38:1177-84. 2008..To test this hypothesis, we devised a speech discrimination task and used signal detection theory (SDT) to investigate the underlying cognitive mechanisms...
Semantic expectations can induce false perceptions in hallucination-prone individualsAns Vercammen
BCN Neuroimaging Center, University Medical Center Groningen, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
Schizophr Bull 36:151-6. 2010..We conclude that aberrant top-down processing, particularly in the form of strong semantic expectations, may contribute to the experience of auditory-verbal hallucinations...
Effects of bilateral repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on treatment resistant auditory-verbal hallucinations in schizophrenia: a randomized controlled trialAns Vercammen
Department of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Groningen and BCN NeuroImaging Center, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
Schizophr Res 114:172-9. 2009..This study aimed to investigate whether 1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the bilateral temporo-parietal region would lead to increased effectiveness in the management of AVH, compared to left rTMS or placebo...
Auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia are associated with reduced functional connectivity of the temporo-parietal areaAns Vercammen
Department of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Groningen, BCN Neuroimaging Center, University of Groningen, The Netherlands
Biol Psychiatry 67:912-8. 2010....
Subjective loudness and reality of auditory verbal hallucinations and activation of the inner speech processing networkAns Vercammen
Department of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands
Schizophr Bull 37:1009-16. 2011..We aimed to assess whether subjective perceptual and experiential characteristics may be linked to neural activation in the inner speech processing network...
Functional connectivity of the temporo-parietal region in schizophrenia: effects of rTMS treatment of auditory hallucinationsAns Vercammen
Department of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Groningen, The Netherlands
J Psychiatr Res 44:725-31. 2010..However, the relationship between these functional changes during the resting state and the rate of clinical improvement needs further clarification...
Structural covariance in the hallucinating brain: a voxel-based morphometry studyGemma Modinos
BCN Neuroimaging Center, Department of Neuroscience, University of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands
J Psychiatry Neurosci 34:465-9. 2009..We used voxel-based morphometry to examine regional grey matter volumes and structural covariance associated with severity of auditory verbal hallucinations...
Abnormal connectivity between attentional, language and auditory networks in schizophreniaEdith J Liemburg
Department of Neuroscience, University Medical Center Groningen, and BCN Neuroimaging Center, University of Groningen, Antonius Deusinglaan 2, 9713 AW Groningen, The Netherlands
Schizophr Res 135:15-22. 2012..This altered connectivity pattern appears to be present independent of symptom severity, and may be suggestive of a trait, rather than a state characteristic...
