Only minimal differences between individuals with congenital aphantasia and those with typical imagery on neuropsychological tasks that involve imagery

TLDR
In this article , the authors found that the cognitive profile of people without imagery does not greatly differ from those with typical imagery when examined by group and that the severity of aphantasia (and VVIQ criterion) may be an important factor to consider when investigating differences in imagery experience.

The mnemonic basis of subjective experience

TL;DR: Lau et al. as mentioned in this paper argue that subjective qualities can be understood in terms of their similarity to other experiences and highlight the role of memory in conscious experience, even for simple percepts.

Memories with a blind mind: Remembering the past and imagining the future with aphantasia

TL;DR: For instance, the authors found that aphantasia is associated with a diminished ability to re-experience the past and simulate the future, indicating that visual imagery is an important cognitive tool for the dynamic retrieval and recombination of episodic details during mental simulation.

Explicit and implicit motor simulations are impaired in individuals with aphantasia

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used transcranial magnetic stimulation to activate motor-evoked potentials (MEPs) in the target right index finger during kinaesthetic motor imagery and action observation.

An Analysis of Transformations

TL;DR: In this article, Lindley et al. make the less restrictive assumption that such a normal, homoscedastic, linear model is appropriate after some suitable transformation has been applied to the y's.

Mental Rotation of Three-Dimensional Objects

TL;DR: The time required to recognize that two perspective drawings portray objects of the same three-dimensional shape is found to be a linearly increasing function of the angular difference in the portrayed orientations of the two objects.

A «rationalized» arcsine transform

TL;DR: A simple linear transformation of the arcsine transform is suggested, which produces values that are numerically close to the original percentage values over most of the percentage range while retaining all of the desirable statistical properties of the arcine transform.

Declarative and nondeclarative memory: Multiple brain systems supporting learning and memory

TL;DR: A brain-systems framework for understanding memory phenomena is developed in light of lesion studies involving rats, monkeys, and humans, as well as recent studies with normal humans using the divided visual field technique, event-related potentials, and positron emission tomography (PET).

From cognitive to neural models of working memory.

TL;DR: It is illustrated how investigations of the neural mechanisms underlying working memory can be influenced by cognitive models and, in turn, how cognitive models can be shaped and modified by neuroscientific data.
