(Medical Xpress)—A new font tailored for people afflicted with dyslexia is now available for use on mobile devices, thanks to a design by Abelardo Gonzalez, a mobile app designer from New Hampshire. Gonzalez, in collaboration with educators, has selected a font that many people with dyslexia find easier to read. Even better, the new font is free and has already been made available for some word processors and ebook readers. The font, called OpenDyslexic, has also been added to the font choices used by Instapaper—a program that allows users to copy a web page and save it to their hard drive. http://medicalxpress.com/news/2012-10-free-font-dyslexia.html Psychology & Psychiatry Mon, 01 Oct 2012 08:10:48 EST news268297834 Bigger words – literally those printed in larger font size – elicit stronger emotional brain responses, reports a study published May 9 in the open access journal PLoS ONE. http://medicalxpress.com/news/2012-05-larger-font-emotional.html Psychology & Psychiatry Wed, 09 May 2012 17:00:03 EST news255784033
