The last alone is not yet adequately determined. We may regard these as pure types, since an individual's imagery may possibly consist exclusively of visual, auditory, or motor elements.

The predominance of one form of imagery--for instance, visual--may be the result merely of habit and not of an innate disposition to visualise. When the dominance of one type of imagery arises from congenital tendency, the other forms of imagery may exist only feebly, and an artificial change of imagery type, though difficult, is possible; or the other forms may be entirely absent, constituting a psychical defect for which, so far as our present knowledge extends, there is no compensation.

The difference in the material of the images corresponds to a difference of function.

Consequently one or, at most, two forms of sensory elements are usually...
