Multisensory subtypes of aphantasia: Mental imagery as supramodal perception in reverse

Neuroscience Research
Cognitive neuroscience research on mental imagery has largely focused on the visual imagery modality in unimodal task contexts. Recent studies have uncovered striking individual differences in visual imagery capacity, with some individuals reporting a ...

A dataset of text prompts, videos and video quality metrics from generative text-to-video AI models [PDF]

Data in Brief
Evaluating the quality of videos which have been automatically generated from text-to-video (T2V) models is important if the models are to produce plausible outputs that convince a viewer of their authenticity.

Neurodiversity in mental simulation: conceptual but not visual imagery priming modulates perception across the imagery vividness spectrum [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Mental simulation—the ability to internally model sensory, conceptual, or future events—may include mental imagery as a component, with considerable individual variability in its vividness and dependence on sensory detail.

Seeing Is Feeling: How Aphantasia Alters Emotional Engagement With Stories. [PDF]

Psychophysiology
ABSTRACT Visual imagery is thought to act as an “emotional amplifier,” potentially contributing to narrative engagement. To examine this, we conducted two experiments in which participants were presented with emotionally charged audio and video story excerpts.

The aphantasia-hyperphantasia spectrum.

Neuropsychologia
Research into imagery vividness in recent year has been predominantly about the difference between aphantasics and the rest of us (or, more rarely, between hyperphantasics and the rest of us). But differences in imagery vividness have great impact on a number of important psychological phenomena in non-aphantasics as well.

Stage 2 Registered Report: Propositional Thought Is Sufficient for Imaginal Extinction as Shown by Contrasting Participants With Aphantasia, Simulated Aphantasia, and Controls. [PDF]

Psychophysiology
ABSTRACT Imaginal exposure is a standard procedure of cognitive behavioral therapy for the treatment of anxiety and panic disorders. It is often used when in vivo exposure is not possible, too stressful for patients, or would be too expensive. The Bio‐Informational Theory implies that imaginal exposure is effective because of the perceptual proximity ...

Measuring the Subjective Signal Strength: Validating Persian Vividness of Visual Mental Imagery Questionnaire-2. [PDF]

Brain Behav
We validated the Persian Vividness of Visual Mental Imagery Questionnaire‐2 (VVIQ‐Pr2) in 630 participants, demonstrating its reliability, unidimensional structure, and convergent validity. The VVIQ‐Pr2 provides a robust measure of subjective imagery vividness, supporting cross‐cultural research and theories of perceptual reality monitoring.

Preselected and preferred immersive virtual reality versus narrative alone to induce post-stress relaxation in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension: A pilot study on perceived stress and heart rate. [PDF]

Br J Health Psychol
Abstract Objectives Several studies have shown the effectiveness of immersive virtual reality (IVR)‐based relaxation techniques in alleviating stress within the general population. However, few data are available on patients, or on the effectiveness of different scenarios in inducing relaxation.
