Book Visual Processes in Reading and Reading Disabilities

Download or read book Visual Processes in Reading and Reading Disabilities written by Dale M. Willows and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last 25 years, reading processes have been the focus of an enormous amount of research in experimental psychology as well as in other disciplines. The theories and models emerging from this research have greatly advanced understanding of both normal acquisition and of reading disabilities. Although great progress has been made, there are certain aspects that have been relatively neglected in the current understanding. Specifically, the role of visual factors has received less attention than that of other component processes. This is particularly surprising since reading and writing are distinct from the other language processes of speaking and listening in large part by virtue of the fact that a visual dimension is involved. Relevant research is broadly scattered both geographically and in terms of disciplines, and there have been no major reviews or books concerned with the visual dimension of reading and reading disabilities. The purpose of this book is to bring together a broad range of evidence that concerns the role of visual information in reading and reading disabilities. Because reading processes are of central interest to cognitive scientists, neuropsychologists, psycholinguists, clinicians, and educators, this book should draw a very broad readership.

Book Psychophysics of Reading in Normal and Low Vision

Download or read book Psychophysics of Reading in Normal and Low Vision written by Gordon E. Legge and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2006-10-11 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by a leader in the field, this book discusses the role of vision in reading. The author describes the influence of physical properties of text on reading performance and the implications for information processing in the visual pathways. He explores different forms of low vision that affect reading, text characteristics that optimize reading for those with low vision, principles underlying the legibility of text, and guidelines for displaying text. Special topics include the role of the magnocellular pathway in reading and dyslexia, Braille reading, and fonts for highway signs. An accompanying CD contains reprints of the seminal series of articles by Gordon E. Legge and colleagues published between 1985 and 2001.

Book Handbook of Human Computer Interaction

Download or read book Handbook of Human Computer Interaction written by M.G. Helander and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 1202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Handbook is concerned with principles of human factors engineering for design of the human-computer interface. It has both academic and practical purposes; it summarizes the research and provides recommendations for how the information can be used by designers of computer systems. The articles are written primarily for the professional from another discipline who is seeking an understanding of human-computer interaction, and secondarily as a reference book for the professional in the area, and should particularly serve the following: computer scientists, human factors engineers, designers and design engineers, cognitive scientists and experimental psychologists, systems engineers, managers and executives working with systems development. The work consists of 52 chapters by 73 authors and is organized into seven sections. In the first section, the cognitive and information-processing aspects of HCI are summarized. The following group of papers deals with design principles for software and hardware. The third section is devoted to differences in performance between different users, and computer-aided training and principles for design of effective manuals. The next part presents important applications: text editors and systems for information retrieval, as well as issues in computer-aided engineering, drawing and design, and robotics. The fifth section introduces methods for designing the user interface. The following section examines those issues in the AI field that are currently of greatest interest to designers and human factors specialists, including such problems as natural language interface and methods for knowledge acquisition. The last section includes social aspects in computer usage, the impact on work organizations and work at home.

  • Release : 1993
  • ISBN :
  • Pages : 890 pages

Download or read book Statistics written by Jay L. Devore and published by Duxbury Resource Center. This book was released on 1993 with total page 890 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real data is used in nearly all examples and exercises in this revision of Devore and Peck's well-respected introduction to statistics. Presenting the latest statistical concepts and techniques (including several chapters on data analysis) as well as full coverage of the standard topics of the course, the book divides naturally into four major sections: descriptive methods, probability, basic one- and two-sample inferential techniques, and more advanced inferential methods. In addition to ''standard'' topics, the authors integrate material that reflects current developments in statistical analysis, including stem-and-leaf displays, boxplots, transformations, residual analysis, normal probability plots, and distributions-free confidence intervals. Written to be accessible to students with just one year of intermediate algebra, the book focuses on concepts rather than formulae and symbol manipulation, motivating students with an abundance of real data.
