Wantzen and Witt · L’Année psychologique
Aphantasics reported less frequent use of autobiographical memory for identity and directive purposes than controls. This suggests that a lack of mental imagery may alter how individuals utilize their personal past to guide future behavior and self-concept.
Wittmann and Şatırer · Learning & Memory
People with aphantasia remembered which items went together as accurately as others but were less often highly confident. This suggests imagery contributes to memory confidence rather than accuracy.
Fox-Muraton · Analiza i Egzystencja
In this philosophy essay, an author with aphantasia argues that people without imagery must use words for experiences they lack, so aphantasia is described only as a lack. She urges researchers to notice how their wording shapes answers.
