Abstract
Auditory hallucinations (AHs) are a key symptom of schizophrenia (SZ) that cause functional impairment and distress. Even with antipsychotic medication interventions, 25% of patients continue to experience AHs. Research into the underlying neuronal mechanisms of AHs may aid in developing alternative treatments. The mismatch negativity (MMN) is an auditory event-related potential that represents preattentive detection of stimulus deviance. MMN deficits are prominent in SZ and have been associated with greater AH frequency. MMN deficits may be related to specific features of AHs, which have yet to be extensively assessed.
