I've recently been reading about the 6 dimensions of societies by Geert Hofstede. I think the voices in you head translate very well to those dimensions. It makes sense that in a more matriarchal society, you'd hear your dead relatives and in a more communal society you'd hear people laughing at you. While in a more patriarchal and individual society like the US the voices are more antagonising.
