Speed reading is a method of reading rapidly by assimilating several words or phrases at a glance.
Speed reading or rapid reading is a selective reading process in which a reader increases their reading rate while attempting to retain as much comprehension of the text as possible. Courses and books on speed reading, often sold through popular psychology literature, tend to promote skimming habits rather than comprehension or retention. While this method increases reading speed, it results in a significant decrease in reading comprehension (under 50%) compared to normal reading for comprehension (over 75%). This may not be appropriate when studying or trying to learn new material, but when researching, searching internet text, or reading novels, this level of comprehension is considered sufficient by advocates. (Abela 2004)
It has been demonstrated that reading with the equivalent of 1,000 words per minute (wpm) with a 100% comprehension is possible (at least in an informational point of view) by reading at 2,000 wpm with 50% comprehension. (Allyn & Bacon, 1987) It is debatable that the end result is the same (for example by reading the same book 2 times in this fashion).
