Objective To investigate the effects of AVTAR therapy for auditory hallucinations in people with schizophrenia. Methods A total of 80 patients with auditory hallucination were randomly assigned to two groups, with 40 cases in each group by random control trail methods. The patients of the study group were given medication therapy combined with AVTAR therapy for 6 weeks, while the patients in the control group were given medication therapy with placebo. Patients' conditions were measured with Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale( PANSS) and Psychotic Rating Scales Auditory Hallucinations( PSYRATS-AH) before and after intervention. Results After intervention, there were no significant changes in the total score of PANSS, auditory hallucination PANSS score, the frequency of PSYRATS-AH and the total score of the pain caused by sound in the study group, comparing with the basic line( P > 0.05). The total score of PANSS, auditory hallucination PANSS score, the frequency of PSYRATS-AH and the total score of the pain caused by sound in the study group decreased significantly than before intervention( P < 0.05) and lower than the control group. However, the change of PANSS total score was not obvious( P > 0.05). Conclusions AVTAR therapy is effective in improving auditory hallucination in schizophrenia patients.
