Forums IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ PhotoReading, Memory Optimizer Study on PhotoReading !

Folks,

I came across this study on PhotoReading while researching about this concept.

Please download the paper from:
http://www.cosphere.com/PR/PhotoReading_Analysis.pdf

Any ideas by anyone ?

Has anyone experienced this ? Having a false sense of comprehenstion after PhotoReading ?

When you follow the activation steps and build the conscious comprehension in layers. It is the same or better than what you get with traditional reading.

Amatory, not really a study now is it.

It may be written by a professor but it's really sharing some comments from other people how haven't studied PR. They just share what they've studied.

I studied speed reading before finding PRing. I'll tell you that both systems work for going through the material faster. I've even had a few really Wow experiences after getting into PR. That would defy some of the claims made in that article.

I'm still not at the level of performance I desire. But that's my fault, it's not what you know, it's not even what your capable of, it's what you do that generates results.... I need to do more.

As an analogy, ask any kid how much fun it is to ride a bike. Then compare the answers of the kids that still have mom and dad running behind them and experiencing the wipe-outs to those of kids that are building ramps to do jumps.

If you're on the outside, it's hard to say what the interior is like.

You are perfection,

This isn't a study but an analysis by a Doctor of Psychology depending on what he knows about the human mind.

Having a false sense of comprehension is fairly common, just google it: http://eee.uci.edu/news/articles/0502comprehension.php

I can see it happening when most of your knowledge comes from browsing or skimming books to learn things thoroughly.

Have you ever read about something, perhaps like how to do a certain type of math problem or perhaps a do-it-yourself project and find yourself constantly refering back to the text while doing the actual thing to find out the next step?

Sometimes practice (doing) is a better lesson than reading.
