Two people who reported an impaired ability to form conscious visual images were tested. Compared to a control group of college students, these impaired visualizers were not impaired on two tests of visual short-term memory. Furthermore, they retained more digits in visual short-term memory than they could visualize. These results suggests that deficits in the ability to form conscious visual images can arise without visual short-term memory being impaired, and conscious visual imagery should not be equated with visual short-term memory.
对两名报告称形成有意识视觉图像能力受损的人进行了测试。与一组大学生对照组相比，这些视觉成像受损者在两项视觉短期记忆测试中并未受损。此外，他们在视觉短期记忆中保留的数字比他们能够想象的更多。这些结果表明，形成有意识视觉图像的能力缺陷可能在视觉短期记忆未受损的情况下出现，并且有意识视觉表象不应等同于视觉短期记忆。
