Dyslexia is a often misunderstood condition, which has to do with deficits in phonological processing, not lateralization. There are two primary "routes" to reading: one whole-word (holistic) and the other phonological. There are regions of the brain that respond differently to words, pseudo-words (phonologically plausible strings), and non-words (non-phonologically plausible strings). For dyslexics, there is an apparent disconnect between visually parsing strings and retrieving the sounds of phonemes. Readers with dyslexia often retrieve the meaning of words as a whole rather than repeating the sounds of words to themselves. > When mixing music I not only switch between stereo and mono, but I also > change the left and right channel. > > I wonder how clearly the difference between left and right ear > perception/understanding is for others?! > > Regards, > Ralf _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
