Auditory hallucinations treated by radio headphones

R Feder. Am J Psychiatry. 1982 Sep.

Abstract

A young man with chronic auditory hallucinations was treated according to the principle that increasing external auditory stimulation decreases the likelihood of auditory hallucinations. Listening to a radio through stereo headphones in conditions of low auditory stimulation eliminated the patient's hallucinations.
