A study reanalyzed data from two previous studies to investigate (1) validity of imagery ratings and reports as measures of reader response to a story, and (2) similarity of final regression models for recall and imagery reports. Imagery and affect ratings of story paragraphs were found to predict both imagery reports and recall of a second, independent group of readers, lending convergent construct validity to these measures. Hierarchical regression analyses of within-subjects variance ensured that rating effects could not be attributed to surface-level text factors. Comparison of final regression models for imagery and recall revealed differences that appeared to support Paivio's dual code hypothesis.
