Brains of people with dyslexia don’t adapt to new information. Findings suggest that dyslexic brains have to work harder than β€œtypical” brains to process incoming sights and sounds, requiring additional mental overhead for even the simplest tasks. bu.edu/research/articles/…

[Academic Survey] I am a graduate student researching people's experiences of emotions. People with dyslexia are underrepresented at university so I'd be grateful if as many people as possible between the ages of 18-26 could fill it out!

tl;dr: Please fill out our survey and game if you are between 18-26! In question 5, please mention ADHD/Dyslexia/ASD/Anxiety/Depression etc, if you have anything like this. The game requires flash player and keyboard Thank you! <3

  • https://durham.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/emotion-regulation-in-emerging-adults

  • For my research project, my partner and I are doing a study on people aged between 18-26's experiences of emotions which includes a short survey and a flash game.

  • If you have any questions, I am happy to clarify, you can shoot me a PM or comment here.

  • Note: there is a question at the start asking about 'mental health problems' which is a bit poorly phrased. What we should have said was 'psychological conditions' so if you have ADHD, dyslexia, Autistic Spectrum Disorder, or another learning difficulty, please list it in that box as well as any mental health issues. What you write in the box might not end up being used as part of the data analysis, but will help us to understand the data a bit better when we look at it.

  • Also, GCSE is the exams at the end of 10th grade (age about 16) and A Level is the exams at the end of 12th grade (age about 18).

  • Finally, if you are a twitter user, please help us to spread our survey far and wide by retweeting: https://twitter.com/BlueRibbons19/status/973214895792689153

(I have submitted our ethical approval letter to the mods who have approved this survey to be shared on here)

TIL that the irregular shapes of the letters in the Comic Sans font type allows people suffering from dyslexia to read more easily. While many fonts use repeated shapes to create different letters, such as a β€˜p’ rotated to made a β€˜q,’ Comic Sans uses few repeated shapes, creating distinct letters. thecut.com/2017/03/the-re…

Study helps for people with dyslexia

My 13yo son is profoundly dyslexic and has a very difficult time studying the scriptures. I was wondering if anyone knew of some great resources (apps, videos, etc.) that maybe we're not aware of. He'd like to be more serious in his scripture study, but it's so difficult for him.

He does have a phone and can listen to the scriptures, but he also has receptive language and auditory processing disorders, so that's not really super helpful. He has normal intelligence, so he doesn't need things to be simplified, content-wise. He can learn all the same things a typical 13yo can - he just needs it presented visually. In school, all of his lessons are presented in live lecture format or supplemented with videos/graphics/etc.

Does anyone know of maybe a graphics-heavy workbook, a video series, or anything else that may be helpful? Or is there a more plain-language version of the Book of Mormon (like how there are other translations of the Bible)? Really looking for anything here. Thanks!

What are the most annoying things people do to β€œhelp” you with your dyslexia?

Mine is post-it notes and yellow paper. People will just give me things printed on yellow paper when they hear I’m dyslexic, I don’t have problems with my reading. I mean it’s nice they’ve made the effort but it’s not helping. Also I don’t know if post-it notes is a thing that is a suggestion to managers at work place dyslexia awareness training or something. But when people know I’m dyslexic in a planning session or meeting at work their go to thing is for me to use post-it notes. As apparently being dyslexic all tasks I do need some kind of visual element. So I have to write my notes or ideas on post-its then stick them to a wall in some kind of nice shape and talk my ideas through with the team that way. And that will somehow help me with planning. First off I can’t spell and I really don’t want my terrible writing, grammar and spelling to be exhibited for all to see on a wall. Secondly I find structure really helpful. My brain lacks it so I don’t want the extra task of trying to structure my own thoughts on a wall in a way others will understand. I’d rather just try and fit in with the structure that everyone else is using even if I have to adapt it a bit or take a bit more time. This has happened multiple times at different companies. It’s just awkward.

I feel so ashamed typing in front of people, dyslexia really bothers me

Hey guys, this is my first time posting, just really want to share my experience with you all. I am pretty sure that I have dyslexia, even I am not clinically texted. All my life I always hated writing things down, I have such terrible hand writing as a kid. But me and my family never looked into it, my mom will always just tell me I need to work harder on it. Is like nobody take me seriously. But this dyslexia thing really bothers me. Spelling is my worst nightmare I can spell almost to nothing and I can’t write Chinese Characters very well (my first language), I read kind of slow includes signs and symbols, and I often see numbers in wrong order. Also, I trip on air when I walk, I read that is a symptom as well.

I can study and work fine with the help of dictionary apps. I studied illustration, which is great since I don’t have to write a lot of paper plus I always had super good visual memories. I just graduated college last week. But the fact I can’t spell really bothers me, I can’t write a whole sentence without looking up a word or use auto correct. A lot people just assume it’s because English is my second language, but I know it’s not the issue. I worked as an translator, I have listen and transcript rodeo events (super fast talking cowboys with southern accent) and then translated into Chinese captions. But I just can’t spell.

Today I was writing something on my laptop. I can’t spell the words as usual, so I had my dictionary app open. My friend walked pass me and saw the word β€œcrouption”, she asked me if I am trying to spell β€œcorruption” and offered to help me writing. I felt so embarrassed, and tell her I am fine. She insist to help me and that got me really upset.

I just really hate people seeing me typing. I can’t spell, I just can’t. I can’t sound a word out (like spelling β€œbon appΓ©tit” as β€œbone apple the teeth”) sometimes I don’t even know which letter a word start with. In school, at one of the art history class we had a quiz, which we had to write done names of artists and tittles of the work on paper. I can’t spell those old European names, even though I know all of them. The teacher said we don’t have to spell it correctly, but I don’t even know which letter it start with, I scored almost to nothing for that quiz. And I was so pissed, because I knew the answer.

All those littles thing in life constantly bothers me, I don’t know how to fix it nor where to get help. I feel like a joke around people, I don’t think they really under
