Individuals with aphantasia do not show increased corticospinal excitability during motor imagery or action observation. This suggests that aphantasia may involve a neurophysiological inability to simulate actions rather than a metacognitive deficit.
Dupont and colleagues · Brain Communications
Aphantasics showed no increase in motor system excitability during motor imagery or action observation tasks. This suggests aphantasia involves a physiological impairment in motor simulation rather than just a deficit in metacognition.
