Scientists test whether Bionic Reading really speeds up reading
Original: Can Bionic Reading really help you read faster? Scientists put it to the test
Researchers have examined Bionic Reading, a technique that bolds the first letters of words to guide the eye, to see whether it genuinely helps people read faster. The scientific test found little support for the claimed speed benefit, prompting discussion about whether the popular formatting tool is more hype than help.
Why now: Bionic Reading has been widely promoted as a speed-reading aid, so a scientific test of its claims naturally draws attention.
