I like companies, institutes who go through steps to prove to the audience that their product is not a scam. lefkoe institute with the lefkoe method.
here is there report done by Department of psychology university of arizona
http://www.lefkoeinstitute.com/support-files/eliminatingfears.pdfNo reports from an institution of this type has been done on photoreading.
I am starting to become skeptical now. WHO am i to BELIEVE?
someone who can fly to the moon and back?
someone who has a scientifically proven report from a psychololgy department, or
someone who has a bad report from nasa?
In the nasa report, Photoreading instructor admitted that the advertised reading times for photoreading are calculated on the basis of the time to complete solely the photofocus phase and do not include the time to complete the other four phrases of the complete photoreading process.
So the 25,000 words per minute is false claim depending on how you interpreted
the following words:
'You actually "mentally photograph" the page at 25,000 words a minute' (found on the front homepage)
if you know the photoreading system then it means that this is only referring to the photofocus step.
For those who dont know the system, you will interpret it differently eg. "wow, i didnt know i would be able to finish a big book that fast".
This is 'deceptive advertising'. This is form of seducing the audience into believe your something that your not. so may call it a 'scam' some may not.
According to the report, the photoreading expert's reading times were
calculated using only the PhotoFocus phase, resulting in an estimate of 1873 words per minute which is far off the 25,000 wpm claims that you all have seen.
According to the report in terms of words per minute (wpm) spent reading, there was no difference between normal reading (M=114 wpm) and PhotoReading (M=112 wpm).
I am skeptical but open-minded to anything that improves my self-being.
Read it thoroughly and form your opinions as i would like to hear from others.
Thanks,
