Measure your imagery across all six sensory modalities. The PSIQ captures not only visual but also auditory, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, and kinaesthetic imagery.
The PSIQ (Plymouth Sensory Imagery Questionnaire) is a comprehensive test for measuring imagery across all sensory modalities. Unlike the VVIQ, which only measures visual imagery, the PSIQ captures six different sensory domains.
The test was developed to capture a more complete picture of human imagery ability. Some people have strong visual imagery but weak auditory imagery – or vice versa. The PSIQ helps identify these individual differences.
With 18 scenarios (3 per sensory modality), the PSIQ provides a detailed analysis of your multisensory imagery and shows which senses are particularly strong or weak for you.
How clearly can you imagine images, colors, and shapes?
How vividly can you imagine sounds, voices, and music?
How well can you imagine smells and scents?
How vividly can you imagine tastes?
How intensely can you imagine touches and textures?
How clearly can you imagine movements and bodily sensations?
Allow yourself 10 minutes in a quiet, undisturbed environment.
The VVIQ measures only visual imagery, while the PSIQ captures all six sensory modalities: visual, auditory, olfactory, gustatory, tactile, and kinaesthetic. This provides a more comprehensive picture of your overall imagery ability.
Yes, this is possible and even relatively common. Some people can imagine images well but not sounds – or vice versa. The PSIQ helps identify these individual differences.
A significantly weaker score in one modality may indicate partial aphantasia in that area. This is not a disorder, but a normal variation in human perception and imagination.
Your results are visualized in a radar chart showing all six sensory modalities. This allows you to see at a glance which senses are stronger or weaker for you.
