Unveiling the Science Behind Phantom Voices and Sensing Presences
Scientists in Switzerland have conducted tests to understand the link between touch and hearing in relation to hallucinations. Using a robotic finger-like device, participants were tapped on the back, and when there was a delay, they reported feeling a presence and hearing voices. The study suggests that even healthy individuals may experience hallucinations when they struggle to understand their body's awareness or proprioception. This research could provide new insights into voice and touch hallucinations.
