Dyslexic Brains Versus Control Group (1 of 2) (IMAGE)
Caption
If a single, consistent voice speaks a stream of words, brains get used to the voice right away and adapt. But if every word spoken is in a different voice, the brain does not adapt. The difference in adaptation, as seen on the left, is large. Essentially, brains are working hard to process different voices, and much less hard to process a single voice. However, those with dyslexia adapt much less. In this image, the amount of adaptation, as seen on the right, is small. Dyslexic brains are working hard to process speech no matter what.
