A tailored imagery training program is likely to result in which outcome?

• A. Reduced anxiety
• B. Improved imagery proficiency
• C. No effect
• D. Decreased motivation

Answer: (B)

A tailored imagery training program directly builds the skill of forming and controlling mental images. Because the training is customized to an individual’s needs, uses guided practice, and provides feedback, it strengthens how vividly and controllably someone can imagine scenarios, movements, or outcomes. That improvement in imagery ability—how clear and adjustable the images are—is the most likely outcome you’d expect from a specifically designed imagery program.

In practice, participants learn to generate more vivid images, manipulate them (change perspective, pace, or timing), and apply imagery in relevant tasks. While better imagery can contribute to reduced anxiety or better performance, the core, most probable result of a tailored program is enhanced imagery proficiency. The other options don’t fit the intent of a training design aimed at building imagery skills.
