Mental imagery as part of an ‘inwardly focused’ cognitive style
What is the source of individual differences in the experience of mental imagery? While parallels are often drawn between imagery abilities and the pe…
Our model proposes that mental imagery is part of an ‘inwardly focused’ cognitive style, geared towards prioritizing attention to internal experiences like emotional awareness, and interoception. Check out our 3 page paper: sciencedirect.com/science/arti... exploring this overlap 2/2 🧵

Mental imagery is like sensory perception, but stands apart as a more complex cognitive process. It's deeply tied to introspection and shares similarity with interoception, mindfulness, and correlates with personality traits 1/2 🧵

Our research indicates that networks optimized for localized information transfer and high interconnectedness facilitate more vivid visual imagery. Conversely, highly integrated networks might weaken the neural activity crucial for creating detailed imagery. #CognitiveNeuroscience

In our study (n=273) we used graph analysis of DTI/rs-fMRI connectomes and discovered significant correlations between network characteristics like local efficiency & clustering coefficients and the ability to generate detailed visual imagery. 🧠🔍 #Neuroimaging #BrainConnectivity

Why can some people conjure images in their mind's eye with stunning clarity, while others experience a blank mind? 🧠✨ Our preprint provides a look at the brain's network dynamics and how they influence visual imagery vividness. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1... #Neuroscience #VisualImagery
