Abstract Resting state (RS) brain activity is inherently non-stationary. Hidden Semi-Markov Models (HsMM) can characterize the continuous RS data as a sequence of recurring and distinct brain states along with their spatio-temporal dynamics. Recent explorations suggest that EEG brain state dynamics in the alpha frequency link to auditory hallucination proneness (HP) in non-clinical individuals....
Abstract Altered sensory feedback processing and attention control are assumed to contribute to auditory verbal hallucinations, which are experienced by the general population and patients with psychosis, implying a continuum of hallucination proneness (HP). However, the interaction of altered sensory feedback processing and attention control along this HP continuum remains unclear....
Depersonalization (DP) is characterized by persistent or recurrent episodes of detachment from one's self with reduced pain perception being a common feature. Alterations in the body schema similar to the cortico-limbic disconnection syndrome of pain asymbolia are suggested to be responsible for DP. In this study we used hypnosis to induce DP in healthy subjects and to examine neural patterns...
