When there comes into mind a picture, one is said to have a visual image; when one hears sounds not actual, as when a musician hears the music of the score he is reading, one has an auditory image. "I call up a former experience in which I was playing football, ' says Professor Scott;2... I feel in imagination the straining of the muscles as I attempted to push against the line. I imagine the terrible struggle, the twisting, straining and writhing of every muscle, tendon and joint. As I imagine it, I find the state is re-established and I am unconsciously leaning toward the goal as if the experience were a present one. My motor imagery of the football...
