For example, instead of saying to yourself "hey, I think I'll order a pizza tonight" they claim to just imagine themselves ordering a pizza and eating it, no words spoken to themselves at all. So I figured I'd ask how do you usually think? Poll: How do you usually think? (Vote): In words (I talk to myself in my head) (Vote): In images (there's a movie/slideshow in my head all the time) (Vote): It's about even.   | ||

But if I had to explain how I think, I would explain it as closer to words than to images. EDIT: If I'm thinking of a series of actions, the layout of an area, Starcraft, chess, or sex, I would describe my thoughts as images. | ||

But daydreams and stuff all come out as images. Heh, have you ever tried forcing yourself to think in images? Or in a different language? It's actually really hard...for me, at least. | ||

When its something where you can evaluate, and different answers are all right, depending on how you argue, I talk to myself. And when its about places and orientation I use images. I guess all of them  | ||

It's an interesting thought I've tried to work it out in the past but it's hard to tell.I think in words, but if I'm daydreaming/reading fiction I swap to slideshow/movie. Though in terms of ordering pizza, what'll happen is somnething will trigger my memories of pizza, experience the taste/smell/site mentally and then think to myself, I want pizza tonight. | ||

I do the same, I'd even go as far as claiming English to be the dominant language. I only switch to Swedish when I'm in need of a wider and more accurate vocabulary, like during problem solving. | ||
