“…Psychophysical evidence in normal and dyslexic readers suggesting that transient activity is attenuated by red light has been demonstrated in measures of metacontrast (Breitmeyer & Williams, 1990;Williams et al, 1991) and stroboscopic motion (Breitmeyer & Williams, 1990), whereas other studies have demonstrated no effect of red stimuli (e.g., Breitmeyer & Breier, 1993;Solman, Cho, & Dain, 1991). Similarly, in measures of actual reading performance, found a decrease in reading comprehension when using red overlays on text with reading-disabled children, but they found no difference between red and gray overlays in normal readers; however, other studies have again demonstrated no effect of red stimuli (e.g., Legge & Rubin, 1986). Similar conflict exists regarding the influence of blue light on transient activity and reading ability.…”
