The most common hallucinations in schizophrenia are

auditory
olfactory
tactual
visual

The correct answer is: olfactory

Hallucinations are perceptions of objects, sounds, or other sensations that are not real. In schizophrenia, auditory hallucinations are the most common, meaning that the person may hear voices or noises that are not actually there. Tactual hallucinations, or feeling sensations on the skin, are also possible but less common. Visual hallucinations, seeing things that are not real, are also possible but not as common as auditory hallucinations in schizophrenia. Olfactory hallucinations, or smelling odors that are not present, are the least common type of hallucination in schizophrenia.
