They close a gap in the diagnostics of reading performance. The paragraphs are designed to resemble everyday life situations of reading continuous text, such as in books or newspapers. The level of difficulty corresponds to sixth grade reading (10–12 years), which is comprehensible for teenagers and adults. Due to lower variance, measuring reading time of a complete paragraph rather than a single sentence or random words is more reliable. Furthermore, it can provide some information about fluency, fatigue, and mistakes.\n\nArticle of Interest: Effects of home reading training on reading and quality of life in AMD – a randomized and controlled study\n\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"SV","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53796960174423,"sku":"SV-SDT-IRE-ST","price":141.94,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1015\/4360\/8663\/files\/SDT-IRE-ST.jpg?v=1781603790","url":"https:\/\/www.sussex-vision.co.uk\/products\/irest-international-reading-speed-texts","provider":"ESP\/SV","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
