Dsxyliea：阅读障碍模拟
Dsxyliea
2016 — 2020，它一次次回到首页
黑点是上首页（≥ 50 分）的那次投稿，空心点是没冲上去的投稿，点越大分数越高。
导读
这是开发者 Victor Geon 制作的一个网页实验：用 JavaScript 让页面上的字母不断抖动、漂移和乱序，模拟阅读障碍（dyslexia）者的阅读体验。文章本身也引发了大量阅读障碍者的讨论，他们指出这种模拟与各自的真实体验并不相同。
为什么经久不衰：它用一种直观、可交互的方式让普通人第一次'感受'到阅读障碍，虽然模拟并不准确，但正因如此引发了关于阅读障碍真实机制的持续讨论，多年来反复被翻出。

阅读障碍者认为该模拟误导了公众，阅读障碍并非视觉问题
唉，作为一个阅读障碍者，这根本不是视觉问题，试图把它'可视化'是徒劳的。就像'醉酒眼镜'能让你走路变难，但绝不会让你感到醉酒。说'字母会跳来跳去'是一种偷懒的说法，免去了冗长又没人能听懂的解释。我感谢作者的用心，但这个实验会让人对阅读障碍产生错误的理解。

Ugh, as someone with dyslexia, it's nothing visual, so trying to visualize being dyslexic is an exercise in futility. You know those "drunk" googles that distort your view? They certainly make it harder to walk, but they in no way make you feel drunk... Try explaining someone what it feels like being on LSD... you can't. Telling people that letters jump around is an easy way to dismiss people whit out having to do a lengthy and tiring explanation that likely wont be understood anyway. I do appreciate the effort that went into this, and that people try to understand, but I don't think this particular experiment is helpful, because people will get the wrong idea about what dyslexia is. Edit: Arzh is right in that I'm being a bit harsh/dramatic here, so I made some small changes.
另一位阅读障碍者描述自己的体验：大脑读得比眼睛快
阅读障碍有很多种形式，我无法代表所有人，但这不像我个人的体验。我的情况是大脑试图以超过身体能力的速度阅读：我读的词往往不是页面上写的那个词，有时能在脑中自动纠正，有时必须重读整句。重读时大脑会突然'看到'和第一次不同的词，这种意义上我倒能理解'跳来跳去'的描述。

There are a variety of different forms of Dyslexia, so I can't speak for everyone. However, this doesn't resemble my own personal form. I would be curious to hear from other Dyslexics to see if this is anything close to their experience. The way I usually explain my variety is that my brain is trying to read faster than it can physically. I have no problem reading words (which seems to be what this code is focusing on), the problem is my brain is already moving forward and the word I read is often not the word written on the page. Sometime I can make the contextual correction in my head while other times I have to reread the sentence to make any sense of it. In that instance, I can understand the "jumping around" description as I can read a sentence for a second time and suddenly my brain will see a different word than it saw the first time.
阅读障碍是多种子任务故障的统称，症状因人而异，模拟不匹配很正常
阅读任务包含许多子任务，任何一个出问题都会被称为'阅读障碍'。不同患者的症状取决于受影响的是流水线的哪一环，所以一个模拟某个人体验的网页和别人的体验不符并不奇怪。推荐入门读物《Psychology of Reading》，书里有个例子：一位受试者无法做从左到右的眼跳，她读英语是阅读障碍，读希伯来语或阿拉伯语却不是。

The reading task involves a number of subtasks. If any of these don't work well, it's “dyslexia”. Different dyslexics have different symptoms and experiences depending on what part of the pipeline is affected how. I'm not surprised that a web page designed to simulate one person's experience doesn't match others'. For an accessible but informative intro-level text, I recommend _Psychology of Reading_, by Rayner, Pollatsek, Ashby, and Clifton. (I took intro grad-level cognitive psychology from Rayner and Pollatsek.) One anecdote I remember from the first edition involved a subject who couldn't perform left-to-right saccades; she was dyslexic in English, but wouldn't have been in Hebrew or Arabic.
ADHD 患者共鸣：注意力被随机吸走，长文阅读成为负担
这和我患 ADHD 的亲身体验惊人地相似。虽然文字不会乱序，但我的注意力会被文中随机的词吸走，可能跳到新句子或跳过几段，几秒就重置一次，读得越久越严重。充足睡眠、低糖饮食和药物能缓解，但从不消失。这让我无法享受长篇阅读，很遗憾，因为内容本身我是喜欢的——阅读成了一种苦役。奇怪的是略读和视觉信息对我来说毫不费力。

This is uncannily similar to my own personal experience with ADHD. Instead of words appearing scrambled, though, my focus during reading is drawn to random words within a text. I might skip to a new sentence or jump down a few paragraphs; it's entirely arbitrary. This process usually continues forward and back, resetting every few seconds. The longer I read something, the worse the effect becomes. It takes a lot of effort to get through things sometimes. Whatever this effect is, it is somewhat lessened by adequate sleep, a low-sugar diet, and prescribed medication. It never completely goes away, though. I have good days and bad days; even at my best, though, working through long texts, papers, or technical literature will eventually cause my mind to wander. Whatever this is (I blame ADHD), it's prevented me from ever being able to enjoy reading literature or long-form journalism. It's a pity, too, because I enjoy the content. The task itself is just too mentally stressful. Reading is, sadly, a form of labor. It's weird, because skimming comes easily. Visual forms of information are also incredibly easy to digest. Do others with ADHD have a similar problem with this?
