title: A relationship between hallucination proneness and character and temperament: a mediating role of meta-cognitive beliefs in a non-clinical sample.
abstract: We investigated a mediating role of meta-cognitions in the relationship between Cloninger's temperament and character dimensions and hallucination proneness among healthy subjects (n=135). Two character dimensions-self-directedness and self-transcendence-were related to hallucination proneness. Negative beliefs about uncontrollability of thoughts partially mediated the relationship between these two character dimensions and hallucination proneness.
