This study tested the predictions derived from two explanatory theoretical models of the effects of colored filters on reading speed: the theory of attributional bias and the theory of visual stress associated with reading. The experimental group consisted of 27 secondary school students (14 boys, 13 girls) diagnosed with the Meares-Irlen syndrome; the control group had 27 students paired in age and sex with the experimental group. The mean age of the sample was 12 years, 10 months (SD = 8.9 mo.). The effects of colored filters on reading speed and accuracy were tested using a word reading test and a visual stress induction text. The presentation method tapped individuals' visual sensitivity and response criteria. The results support some predictions of the theory of attributional bias, but more research is needed to assess each theory of reading speed.
归因偏差理论和与阅读相关的视觉压力理论。实验组由 27 名被诊断患有 Meares-Irlen 综合征的中学生(14 名男生,13 名女生)组成;对照组由 27 名年龄和性别与实验组相匹配的学生组成。样本的平均年龄为 12 岁 10 个月(SD=8.9mo.)。使用单词阅读测试和视觉压力诱发文本测试来检验有色滤光片对阅读速度和准确性的影响。呈现方法测试了个体的视觉敏感度和反应标准。结果支持归因偏差理论的一些预测,但需要进一步研究来评估每种阅读速度理论。
