Abstract

This is the first non-retrospective neuropsychological group study using a componential task analysis for the study of imagery. Seventy unilaterally brain damaged patients were tested on a series of tasks with the intent of isolating genuine deficits of the image generation process. The main finding is that the image generation seems to be more frequently disturbed after a left posterior damage. Suggestions are provided for further investigations.
