Aphantasia and the unconscious imagery hypothesis
Consciousness and CognitionUntil recently, mental imagery has largely been regarded as an exclusively conscious phenomenon. However, recent empirical results suggest that mental imagery can also occur unconsciously. People who report having no experiences of mental imagery often perform similar to controls on behavioural tasks thought to require imagery.

Aphantasia, the inability to voluntarily generate mental imagery, is typically explained as a failure to reactivate perceptual representations. Here, we propose an alternative framework: aphantasia as an impairment in disengaging from external perceptual processing.

Aphantasia, SDAM, and Episodic Memory
Annals of the Japan Association for Philosophy of Science, 2019 Episodic memory (EM) involves re-experiencing past experiences by means of mental imagery.

A decade of aphantasia research – and still going!
NeuropsychologiaAphantasia, a term coined in 2015, refers to the lack of wakeful visual imagery. Research since then has clarified the nature of this intriguing variation in human experience. I review several unanswered questions which are currently under investigation. First, it appears unlikely that aphantasia is a single entity. If not, what are its subtypes?
