Comparison of scores on an imagery questionnaire and performance on an objective imagery task

This thesis has sought a relationship between score on an objective imagery questionnaire and performance on an objective imagery task. The Sheehan revision (1967) of the Betts QMI (1909) and the Weber Alphabet Task (1969), respectively, were the two measures used.The Sheehan revision (1967) of the original Betts (1909) was administered to 107 students and three imagery groups of 10 students each were chosen on the basis of the results: a high imagery group, a middle imagery group, and a low imagery group. These 30 subjects then performed the Weber Task. An analysis of variance was done on the two sets of scores.No relationship was found to exist between scores on the two measures. Several reasons for this failure to find a relationship were proposed, among them response bias inherent in imagery utilized by the two measures.
