    • 2005, Hazel E. Nelson, Cognitive-behavioural therapy with delusions and hallucinations, page 217:
      For example, a voice accusing a man of being a paedophile might be based on recent TV news programmes about antipaedophile vigilante groups, plus the memory of having been accused of being a pervert by a neighbour, plus fears that he might be a secret paedophile because he enjoyed reading Lolita.
