This study is concerned with relationships between descriptions of visual imagery produced by rhythmic photic stimulation and a number of personality tests. Individuals who manifested the ability to suspend their generalized reality-orientation described more imagery; imagination and suggestibility also seemed to be important. Subjects' expectations about what they would see influenced their reports, although comprehension of the experimental design, fatigue and motivation were not relevant. The correlated personality variables indicate a close relationship with other types of visual imagery; the phenomenology fits a synthesized description of sensory deprivation, mescaline, and hypnagogic imagery
