How you model and reason about problems in your head?

Revision en2, by disconventional, 2026-02-23 11:45:42

I've been doing some reading on Aphantasia(a condition where people can't imagine visual imagery), Anendophasia(having no inner monologue in one's mind), and Anauralia(basically aphantasia but for sound) out of fascination. I found out that different people have different levels of vividness for their visual and auditory imaginations, and I'm curious about its effects on problem solving ability. Would you guys mind replying to the post with a brief description of the process of how you model and reason about problems in your head, and what you believe to be your level of vividness wrt sound and visuals? I would describe myself as having a 3 for visual imagery and 2 for auditory.
