Dyslexics Have Easier Time Reading On E-Readers

A new study suggests that people with dyslexia might have an easier time reading an e-reader than traditional paper.

During the study, dyslexics were asked to read paper printed with a 14-point Times Roman font and one-inch margins. They were then asked to read on iPods. The iPods displayed 42-point Times Roman font. That made the lines that were read short, with about three or four words per line. The background on the iPod was black and the font was white.

The researchers found that the subjects consistently read faster and remembered more reading on the iPod.
