DQ 1) Cognitive imagery includes all sensory modalities including sight, hearing, taste, smell, and touch. While it might be easy to manipulate a visual image (e.g., imagine the GCU Lope as blue instead of white), it is hard to manipulate images in other modalities (e.g., trying to imagine the smell of tulips but sweeter). Develop a theory as to why this is the case.
