There was a study on this, I read the report some time ago, the difference between people with schizophrenia and Psychics is that psychics are much more likely to perceive the voices as positive or helpful and as experiences that can be controlled, patients with schizophrenia were much more likely to report negative experiences when hearing voices or discussing the voices with other people.
Psychics have a much higher degree of control over the voices. They also have a greater willingness to engage with and view the voices as positive or neutral to their lives.
