Abstract: Eye fixations during visual mental imagery are predicted by those during prior perception in aphantasia (n = 33) and controls (n = 23). The credible intervals of the Bayesian model excluded 0 with no interaction, showing a reliable effect across both groups. Individuals with aphantasia show content-dependent fixations during imagery.
