    Accordingly, we ran all three players for one trial on 9 new quiet positions taken from a book of chess puzzles from actual Master games (Reinfeld, 1945).Figure 4 shows an example of one of these positions. For these new positions, the Master, the Class A player, and the beginner averaged 81, 49, and 33 percent correct, respectively, as compared to 62, 34, and 19 percent, respectively, on the ...

    characterization of the patterns stored in chess players' long-term memory, it also describes at some length the role of the mind's eye, an internal store where visuo-spatial operations are carried out. Basing their account upon previous research (e.g., Simon & Barenfeld, 1969), Chase and Simon proposed that the mind's eye consists of

    It is believed that the demonstration of de Groot's, far from being an incidental side effect of chess skill, actually reveals one of the most important processes that underlie chess skill—the ability to perceive familiar patterns of pieces.

He should be able to quickly answer, without looking at the board, to somequestions such as:- How can a knight from c4 arrive at f6 through d3?- Say all the...
  6. In other words, calculation is not a skill only for those with a mind's eye. Even without the ability to "see" the board or imagine the sight of it, they're still able to calculate. Take a look through the post, and see what advice they offer the OP from 3 years ago.
  7. It depends on what you were doing for the 700 hours. If you were playing online-only during that time then I'm not surprised. This is adapted from a previous comment I made, but this is how I and the people I know IRL picked it up: "Blindfold isn't something you get by specifically training it - any person who plays regular long games in a league or part of team will gradually pick the ...
  8. About 1-3% of the population have no mind's eye. This is called aphantasia. A simple test for this is trying to imagine an apple in your mind. If you can't see an apple, you likely have aphantasia. Of course, I intuitively know what an apple looks like, and can describe one, but I cannot see a visual picture in my mind.
