Summary
This small study tested whether a noninvasive electrical stimulation technique, targeted to a specific brain area (the right superior temporal sulcus), could reduce hallucinations in people with psychosis. Twelve participants who were actively experiencing hallucinations received the stimulation. The goal was to see if this approach could improve brain activity and ease symptoms like hearing or seeing things that aren't there.
