Actually, it seems that the symptoms themselves don't change, only the
expression of those symptoms. In other words, the symptom is the experience
of auditory hallucinations, and that stays the same regardless of where
they perceive the "voices" coming from. The societal/cultural influence
only effects the manifestation of the symptom. This influence can also play
a role in who the originator of the voices is (e.g., aliens, spirits,
demons, the grandmother that passed away causing the student to miss the
exam, etc.) Or so it seems, since I'm speaking outside of my area of
expertise here...
Just my two cents...
