The present study aims to characterize and modulate motor imagery abilities in
individuals with aphantasia. The investigators will characterize the neurophysiological
and physiological underpinnings of mental imagery abilities in participants with
aphantasia by investigating several indices of motor imagery abilities and comparing them
to participants with typical mental imagery abilities. The investigators will investigate
whether non-invasive brain stimulation applied to the primary motor cortex improves
mental imagery abilities in participants with aphantasia.

total score of more than 32 on the VVIQ)
