Dyslexia and Noise reducing Headphones
Hey Guys,
Throughout my course I've always used inner ear and noise reducing headphones as a way to avoid getting distracted in the library.
They've been massively helpful to me..... (Dyslexia/ADD) ...... and I was thinking of looking into this properly as part of my dissertation (MSc PSychology). I was just wondering if anyone else had found that this was helpful for them??

I'd like to use earplugs in the library, but I'm afraid that would make me look like a freak (with bright yellow stuff sticking out of my ears). So instead I listen to white noise mp3's in the library. They're hour-long mp3 files with nothing other than sounds of rain/wind - it helps muffle out the noise of people coming and going so that I can focus on my work. I find this technique invaluable to me, without it I probably wouldn't be able to use the library at all.
