Imageabiity is defined as the ease with which a word gives rise to a mental image (i.e., a mental picture or sound, or other sensory experience).
For example think of the word “पीना”. “पीना” would probably arouse an image (e.g., of man drinking glass of water) relatively easily and would be rated as high. “उलझना” (to get confused) would probably do so with difficulty and be rated as low imagery.
Because words tend to make you think of other words as associates, it is important that your ratings not be based on this, and that you judge only the ease with which you get a mental image of an object or event in response to each word. Your imagery ratings will be made on a 1 to 7 scale.
1 - arouses a mental image only with difficulty or not at all
7 - highly imageable - can be imaged quickly and easily
Some words eg.सीना have a noun and verb sense; remember we are considering the imageability of the verb only.
