We examine the possible reasons why the results of our recent study on imagery acuity differed from those of an attempted replication by Intons-Peterson and White. Comparison of the two studies suggests that the differences in results are likely to be due to differences in procedures for giving imagery instructions and measuring the fields of resolution, and not to the presence or absence of experimenter bias. Accordingly, we discuss the importance of using skilled and practiced experimenters when conducting imagery acuity experiments. In addition, we address issues raised by Banks concerning the identification of particular levels of functional equivalence in imagery and perception.
我们探究了近期我们关于表象敏锐度的研究结果与因托恩斯 - 彼得森和怀特所做的一项尝试性重复研究结果不同的可能原因。两项研究的对比表明，结果差异可能是由于给出表象指令的程序以及测量分辨范围的差异，而非实验者偏差的有无。因此，我们讨论了在进行表象敏锐度实验时使用熟练且有经验的实验者的重要性。此外，我们还探讨了班克斯提出的关于在表象和感知中确定特定功能等效水平的问题。
