Study Summary

This study compares the efficacy of low and high frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) as a means of treating subjects with schizophrenia. Magnetic pulses delivered over the scalp cause brain activity. This activity has been shown to help decrease the intensity and frequency of auditory hallucinations (AH) in schizophrenia. The investigators will compare whether low or high frequencies work best. The investigators will also examine what changes occur in the brain that are related to improvement.

Primary Outcome

The Auditory Hallucinations Questionnaire (AHQ) will be used to determine the patient's perceptions of change in auditory hallucinations(s). Normal controls do not fill out this measure because they do not have auditory hallucinations. Change in the average results of this test between the baseline and active treatment weeks (1 and 10 Hz) will be measured. The range of scores is 0-70, higher scores mean more symptoms.

Interventions
