The aim of this review is to integrate research findings on the role of sociocultural factors in hallucinations and to relate these factors to current psychological theory and research.
The literature was surveyed by manual search, and the more reliable studies selected for the review.
One hundred and thirteen publications were scrutinised and 30 of them were included in this review.
Cross-cultural concepts of reality are related to the development and the threshold of hallucinations. Attitudes toward hallucinations tend to affect the emotional reaction to, and the degree of control of, these experiences. Awareness of these attitudes may help the diagnostician to distinguish between pathological and culturally sanctioned hallucinations. It is important that therapists consider the functional significance and meaning of hallucinations as well as the social context and the stimuli associated with them.
本综述的目的是整合关于社会文化因素在幻觉中作用的研究结果，并将这些因素与当前的心理学理论和研究联系起来。
通过手工检索对文献进行了调查，并选择了更可靠的研究进行综述。
仔细审查了113篇出版物，其中30篇被纳入本综述。
现实的跨文化概念与幻觉的发展和阈值相关。对幻觉的态度往往会影响对这些体验的情绪反应和控制程度。意识到这些态度可能有助于诊断医生区分病理性幻觉和文化认可的幻觉。治疗师考虑幻觉的功能意义和含义以及社会背景和与之相关的刺激因素非常重要。
