Imagery in the history of psychology
Early ideas about imagery:
 Wilhelm Wundt – first lab of psychology
 Imageless thought debate
 Behaviourism – the study of imagery was pushed out the door
 Come back with the study of cognition

Imagery and the cognitive revolution:
 Paivio – conceptual peg hypothesis
o Concrete nouns create images
o Inferred cognitive processes by measuring memory
 Shepard and Metzler
o Inferred cognitive processes by measuring the amount of time needed
to carry out various tasks
o Mental chronometry

Imagery and perception: Do they share the same mechanisms?
 The idea that there is a spatial correspondence between imagery and
perception is supported by a number of experiments by Kosslyn involving a
task called mental scanning
o In which participants are asked to create mental images and then to
scan them in their minds

Kosslyn’s early mental scanning experiments:
 Memorise a picture of an object and then to create an image of that object in
their mind and to focus on one part of it
o If imagery is spatial then it should take participants longer to find parts
that are located farther from the initial point of focus because they
would have to scan across the whole image of the object
 2 fictive places on a map
o Results supports the idea that visual imagery is spatial in nature
 Pylyshyn proposed another explanation – starting the imagery debate

The imagery debate: is imagery spatial or propositional?
 Pylyshyn proposed that the mechanism underlying imagery is not spatial but
propositional
 Representations that are like realistic pictures of an object are called depictive
representations
 Pylyshyn believed that participants simulated the results in Kosslyn’s
experiment
o This is called tacit knowledge explanation because it states that
participants unconsciously use knowledge about the world in making
their judgments
