心理学研究的最新发现已经开始阐明想象和心理意象的认知和神经机制，并强调了它对一些重要结果的重要作用，包括与精神病理学和心理治疗研究相关的结果。然而，想象力的科学研究一直受到美德的限制，因为它主要被框定为一种心理意象的能力。在这里，我们认为想象力是一种普遍的现象，我们都参与其中，它影响着更广泛的重要结果，而不仅仅是更常见的研究概念，如创造力。因此，四因素想象量表(FFIS)侧重于想象过程的特征，并根据这些特征中的个体差异来测量想象，包括想象的频率、复杂性、情绪效价和方向性。研究1包括结构启发和生成大量的候选调查项目。研究二(N = 378)在更大的样本中对初步的候选项目库进行了探索性的定量分析，揭示了设计项目的四个显著因素。研究3(N = 10,410)确认了初步条目的结构，并报告了结果量表的内部一致性和单维度，以及收敛和区分效度。FFIS证实，想象力在自然界中是多方面的，更好地将其作为更狭隘可测量的结构的星座来处理。
Recent findings in psychological research have begun to illuminate cognitive and neural mechanisms of imagination and mental imagery, and have highlighted its essential role for a number of important outcomes, including outcomes relevant for the study of psychopathology and psychotherapy. Scientific study of imagination, however, has been constrained by the virtue of being framed mainly as an ability for mental imagery. Here we propose that imagination is a widespread phenomenon that we all engage in, and which affects a wide range of important outcomes beyond more commonly studied constructs like creativity. Thus, the Four-Factor Imagination Scale (FFIS) focuses on features of the imaginative process, and measures imagination in terms of individual differences in those features, including frequency, complexity, emotional valence, and directedness of imagination. Study 1 consisted of construct elicitation and generation of a large pool of candidate survey items. Study 2 (N = 378) conducted exploratory quantitative analysis on the preliminary pool of candidate items in a larger sample, revealing four distinct factors of the designed items. Study 3 (N = 10,410) confirmed the structure of the preliminary items, and reported internal consistency and unidimensionality, as well as convergent and discriminant validity of the resultant scales. The FFIS confirms that imagination is multi-faceted in nature, and is better approached as a constellation of more narrowly measurable constructs.
