- Aphantasia is where individuals cannot generate voluntary mental images—a function most people perform effortlessly—their mind’s eye is blind. A new study found that people with aphantasia do not show expected increase in brain activity that typically occurs when imagining or observing movements. https://www.psypost.org/aphantasia-linked-to-abnormal-brain-responses-to-imagined-and-observed-actions/ 567 comments science
