![]() ![]() Consistent with recent work showing a tenuous relationship between comprehension and WMC, participants' WMC did not predict comprehension scores. ![]() The current study explored variables that may affect reading comprehension during RSVP reading, including text difficulty (6th grade and 12th grade), text presentation speed (static, 700 wpm, and 1,000 wpm), and working memory capacity (WMC). Although the companies producing these apps suggest that RSVP reading does not yield comprehension deficits, research investigating the role of eye movements in reading documents shows the necessity of natural eye movements for accurate comprehension. This is done using rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP), where words are presented 1 at a time, thus preventing natural eye movements such as saccades, fixations, and regressions from occurring. I also made a Spritz clone, in the form of a chrome extension.New computer apps are gaining popularity by suggesting that reading speeds can be drastically increased when eye movements that normally occur during reading are eliminated.

I think 3 years is a bit much to develop such simple ideas, and strongly suspect they spent most of their time figuring out how to make money out of it. ![]() Spritz's only novel contributions here are aligning the words around a focus letter, and splitting them up if they are longer than 13 characters. Neither is showing the words for different lengths of time based on their readability. And you can get 90% of the way there with simple heuristics.Īs for 1 & 2, The idea of flashing words on screen one-at-time for the sake of reading quickly is not new. The only two semi-complex aspects of making this a really high quality tool are picking where to split long words, and deciding how long to show words on the screen. Their method for picking the focus letter is trivial (based on word length) and works perfectly. Example: Hello.Įxplanation of our link flairs Join our /r/bookclub Don't forget /new!
