My issue with tests like this is I'm asked to describe the image, but I do not know which of the options is correct. I can't say I can see a dim and flat image. I don't really "see" anything, but I kind of "know" the image. How does this compare to the normal experience? I have no way of knowing, so I have trouble putting myself on that scale.
I know it says that you only "know" you are thinking of the object, but it also says no image. I kind of "know" the image, in colour, but can't actually see it. It's so incredibly hard to describe!
When it starts asking about walking around and stuff, no, not even close to that.
My way of explaining this is; I know what an apple looks like but can't see it. I can rotate a block in my head but without an image. It is like there is an image but with a big black sheet in front, if the sheet were moved I'd see the image.
