The default mode network strengthens when the mind wanders and underlies self-understanding.

Evidence

Schizophrenia is regarded as a large cluster of profound neuropsychiatric symptoms. A subtype of patients (also) experience phantom perception of sounds. One interpretation is that, since the DMN is different between groups in previous work and ours, the DMN somehow plays a role in ‘hearing’ internally generated sound (whether it is meaningful like in patients with schizophrenia or meaningless like tinnitus). — Dijk, Pim van, Physiology, Psychoacoustics and…, 2747 (#expands, via linked claim)
