Imagery performed from the perspective of a spectator or outside observer is referred to as:

• A. External imagery
• B. Concurrent imagery
• C. Internal imagery
• D. Focal imagery

Answer: (A)

Imagery perspective is about whose point of view you imagine the action from. When you picture the movement as if you are watching from outside, like a spectator, you’re using external imagery—a third-person perspective. This viewpoint helps you focus on form, technique, and spatial relationships as if assessing someone else’s performance. In contrast, internal imagery is from your own eyes, as if you’re performing the action yourself. The term concurrent imagery isn’t the standard way to describe perspective, and focal imagery refers to concentrating on specific cues rather than the viewpoint. So picture the action from an outside observer’s view, and you’re using external imagery.
