Have we overlooked the significance of multinodal hallucinations in schizophrenia?

Scant research attention has been devoted to the phenomenon of multimodal hallucinations, with majority of studies focusing on auditory hallucinations (AH) in psychosis. The current study aimed to explore the frequency and characteristics of these multisensory hallucinations in a primary AH cohort. It was concluded more than half of our sample reported comorbid hallucinations in one or more sensory modes. This conveys significant research and clinical implications, in terms of steps taken for adequate assessment and intervention.
