The emergence of Generative AI and "Vibe Coding" has established prompt engineering as a core competency.
The emergence of Generative AI and "Vibe Coding" has established prompt engineering as a core competency. However, this poses a latent barrier for users with aphantasia, who lack voluntary mental imagery. This study conducted a quantitative analysis on 103 first -year university students by integrating the Vividness of Visual Imagery Questionnaire (VVIQ), Computational Thinking (CT), and the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM). The results indicate that: (1) individuals with aphantasic tendencies experience significantly higher cognitive load when translating abstract concepts into prompts (t=2.38,p<.05); and (2) computational thinking exerts a significant positive influence on AI user satisfaction (β=0.20,p<.01). The findings demonstrate that high computational thinking capabilities can effectively mitigate the disadvantages of low visual imagery, ther eby enhancing interaction satisfaction. The study concludes that computational thinking serves as a mechanism to transcend sensory limi…
