Duration: 10 mins DOI: 10.13056/acamh.12551

Description

In this Video Abstract, Dr. Sarah Parry and Dr. Filippo Varese discuss their CAMH journal paper ‘Whispers, echoes, friends and fears: forms and functions of voice‐hearing in adolescence’. Despite the high prevalence of voice-hearing in childhood, research with adolescents aged under 16 years is scarce. Theoretical connections between clinical and developmental conceptualizations of voice-hearing are limited, resulting in missed opportunities to explore unusual sensory experiences with young people.

Learning Objectives

1. Explore the theoretical and phenomenological understanding of voice-hearing for an under-represented group of young people.
2. Examine the range of differences in form and function of comforting and distressing voices.
