A psychofeedback approach to schizophrenia.

Annitto (1981) has criticized my work on the nature of hallucinations (March 1979). One of his points--the need to take the patient's affective state into account--is valid. His other criticisms--that I propose to use my outline of hallucination types for diagnostic purposes and that I have blamed the patient--are serious misconstructions of my work. A number of psychological techniques used for alleviating hallucinations in an acute schizophrenic patient are described. A psychofeedback approach, based on the biofeedback model used in psychosomatic medicine, is proposed as a modifying treatment for some schizophrenic patients.
