wait audiobooks is = reading? Do you find the retention of info as valid? I have a hard time focusing at least in my experience haven't tried audiobooks in a long time.
At least for me the effort of scanning, reading, and thinking about the authors perspective and the grind is where the knowledge sinks in for me.
- corky_buchek 2mo agoOP reads a book while listening to the audio version of it at the same time. It's super-retention!!
- freedomben 2mo ago> wait audiobooks is = reading? If you're reading along with the audio like OP, then definitely. But even by itself I think there's a case to be made. Retention for some people (especially those with ADHD can be higher with listening than reading if they listen while doing a low-mental-effort task). If you absorb the material, I think it counts personally.
