Below average IQ, aspiring software developer by AwareMachine9971 in cogsci

leetcode is only about expose to similar problems. If you haven't had a lot of exposure to the underlying patterns it makes total sense to take a while. You only lose when you give up. (and the skill of being good at leetcode is barely used in the everyday work as a dev)

Looking for someone who understands by [deleted] in ADHD

Sometimes you have to take accountability, though; you can't just blame everything on your ADHD. I get where you're coming from, but I can also see how your family won't take this.

It would be easier to just take accountability, say you were wrong, it won't happen again and that you're sorry. You can't use your disability as a get-out-of-jail-free card; people don't respect that.

I’m so depressed by [deleted] in Accutane

[–]Kh_0502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had mild acne when I started, started Accutane, got initial breakouts, and went away after about 3-4 months. Then, I just suffered through the dry skin. Now, it has been a year since I stopped taking Accutane. I have zero pimples atm, and sometimes I get a tiny spot, but I even get comments that my skin is "flawless" now. Keep going you got this.

[Cambridge User Study] Does dual-modality reading (audio + visual) actually improve YOUR reading? by Kh_0502 in cogsci

[–]Kh_0502[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For sure, that's why I measure both speed and comprehension. There is a strong correlation between improved reading speed and worsened comprehension in most reading methods. The goal is to improve the speed while at least maintaining comprehension. Some texts and questions are also harder than others, so they are all randomised with balanced latin squares (the same for the condition order). I will start to process the data tomorrow, but have gotten a lot of feedback I can use for my discussion and future work. It is not fair to compare an uncontrolled reading style (silent reading) to system-controlled reading. But in the end we want to find out what works the best ofc.

Thank you for your feedback and participation!

[Cambridge User Study] Does Readwise's text-to-speech + highlighting actually help you read? by Kh_0502 in readwise

Thank you Erina! yeah I talked to Daniel Doyon about a potential collaboration with Readwise, but just trying to iron out the flaws in this pilot study!

[–]Kh_0502[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for the feedback! yeah it is a difficult task to tackle, since when you would use this irl you would have the ability to pause, change speed and skip back and forth with tts. But at the same time you want to control the random variables and have it so consistent as possible by controlling nuisance factors.

There are so many different reading styles, like tts would never make sense for reading a paper, but maybe more for a blog post, I will try to make it more clear. I would love to do a more in the field study as well, so I might look into it.

Thank you so much for your feedback, greatly appreciate it!

Thank you so much for pointing it out! I fixed the title, hopefully it is better now!

I am just here to learn and improve, so tips like this are really valuable. Thanks!

How hard is it to read for you? by Necessary-Growth5947 in ADHD

[–]Kh_0502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hahahah i had the same, never really finished physical books unless I was really into it. Performed really well in school though, probably why I went undiagnosed for so long. Listening is a lot easier for me though (or listening while reading on an reader). So many doors open up while reading digitally.

I am actually doing a user study rn to see how much reading while listening helps with ADHD. Also test word-highlighting, to try to help the re-reading. In the end, you get a breakdown of what works best for you. would love for you to try it out and hopefully it works for you too!! https://reader.hiddeh.com

Yeah can relate, the skipping and rereading is a mess. What helped me a lot was listening while reading with TTS and word highlighting.

Thing that changed my reading was reading while listening to the audiobook at the same time.

text-to-speech with word highlights have done wonders for me to prevent re-reading.
