How this test works
This check asks how vivid your mind's eye is. You picture 10 everyday scenes, such as a friend's face or a sunset, and rate each one from 1 (nothing) to 5 (as clear as the real thing). Then you rate one sound, one smell, one taste and one touch. Your score is the average of the 10 picture ratings. There are no right answers and no clock. Psychologists have asked people to rate their mental pictures since Francis Galton did so in 1880.
