Description
David S Im and Carrie M Tamarelli propose a 2026 reading strategy for medical students and doctors with ADHD. Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder is common yet often overlooked in medicine, where it can hurt study, training, and even patient care. Their framework, called Record and Read, grows out of an earlier video summary method the authors devised.
In the strategy, the learner records themselves reading a paper aloud. They then listen back while following the text and marking key points. Hearing one's own voice is meant to hold attention and strengthen memory, an effect known from learning research. The authors say it may cut delay and boost understanding. They note limits too, including the effort it takes and access to recording tools. The method awaits formal testing.
