    It's interesting that I found it easier to read at 450 WPM than 300 WPM. Could be because I'm a college student and that's the pace I'm used to. But I definitely noticed more subvocalization at 300 WPM which impeded on my ability to read quickly.

    • @carsoncaskey5421
      @carsoncaskey5421 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      this was the case with me aswell. I think its because at 300 and below your actually trying to read every single word and then assemble meaning from those words simultaneously but around 450 i think you just see the words all at once and you brain just kind of generates an appropriate meaning based on what it just saw without being "given" the adequate amount of information to determine its actual 100% meaning. That's kind of what i was able to gather from how my brain was working but I'm not sure if i explained it exactly right. Ig you can think of it like computer game lag where your not seeing the full 60 fps properly but you still know what's going on based on the information you saw before and after the lag.

    450 - I can mostly comfortably keep up. This is probably the fastest I can sustain for any lengthy amount of time.
    600 - I can still mostly keep up. It's not comfortable anymore and I am having to reconstruct the sentences in my head after the fact to fill in gaps in order to comprehend them. I can probably do this for short bursts of time, but it would take 100% concentration.
    900 - I still understood it. I didn't catch all of it, but I cought enough of the important words to be able to construct a comparable sentence of meaning.
    Only sustainable for a few sentences max.
    1800 - I can pick out roughly one in every four words. I find it easier to recognize the longer words. I did not gather anything meaningful from it and can't effectively read/understand any of it.

    The issue is that it prevents you from reading blocks of text simultaneously, which is a common technique with speedreaders. When I read, I look at the whole paragraph, or several sentences in a row, and read it all fluidly. The choppy motion on a screen is terrible, and I can probably read faster without it.

All it takes to get good at reading with RSVP is practise, with only little amounts having by a large impact on your reading pace. Really try to not read out loud in your head (subvocalise) to improve reading standard text.

    I found this a quite interesting experience and would love to learn more about how the human brain works with this.
    This was actually my first experience with both speed reading and RSVP (just found it by accident) and you somehow lost me at 1800 WPM - I mean I still got the meaning (that you are a supposed to comment "wizard" if you are still able to read) but cannot recall the text word by word as I can usually do after reading something or having a conversation and as I can with all the slower texts after having seen them once - but I found 900 WPM still okay to do.
    That being said ... "watermelon" / "wizard".

      I have studied this extensively if you’d like to learn more. This is an overlooked mechanism that actually has a biological relationship that’s under rated and leveraged. Look into Long Term Potentiation to see how the human brain uses this. For further evidence of it’s efficacy, look into marketing and advertising journals that document the use of rapid serial visual presentation. It’s the basis for high speed imprinting and essentially, subliminal messaging, which is accepted as a method of modulating human behavior.

    I can read at the 900, but i am mostly using contextual clues and with larger words only getting either the beginning or end of it. It's a lot closer to skimming than reading where you are skipping lots of words and getting the jist
