Comparing Quantum Mechanics and String Theory

quantum mechanics has many interpretations, though a lot of them don't disagree in the maths.

i would like to know how each interpratation of quantum mechanics effects string theory, and viceversa: how do the string equations effect the individual interpratations of quantum mechanics. which is the preferred interpratation, among string theorits, of quantum mechanics for string theory.

how would i search out this information?

Typical string theorists do not much care about the interpretations of QM, i.e., it could said that most of them prefer the "shut up and calculate" interpretation.

Due to your name, I suspect that you might like the Bohm interpretation. If so, you might find interesting that some results indicate an intimate relation between string theory and Bohmian interpretation:

https://arxiv.org/pdf/2503.09804 From the abstract: ... Our derivation uses both EE and the Newtonian approximation of EE in Part I, to describe semi-classically in Part II the advection of DM, created at the level of the universe, into galaxies and clusters thereof. This advection happens proportional with their own classically generated gravitational field g, due to self-interaction of the gravitational field. It is based on the universal formula ρD =λgg′2 for the densityρ D of DM...
