  • Effect of Perceptual Load on Performance Within IDE in People with ADHD Symptoms

    Too bad the article is not open-access, as I would expect from JetBrains.

    Extra cognitive load slows everyone. It's just that the effect is measurably distinct in people with executive function (distractability) issues, with respect to speed. The distinction between debugging and coding is not really active vs monotonous but driven by your own ideas vs chasing (a problem). The study isn't realistic, but it's designed to get a measurable result (and to showcase the "efficiency tracking" plugin).

    Anecdotally, everyone adjusts their IDE, or accommodates what can't (easily) be changed. Too bad that wisdom is lost and hard to share.

    I think the solution here is more configurable UI's, with the configuration being automated/scriptable so that once you've established your preferences, you can replicate them through upgrades, etc.

    The most configurable IDE of course is Eclipse (which is in decline because no one gets paid directly to write for it, and it's cheaper to publish a language server for your new language than build an IDE). You can arrange views as you like, change menu and toolbar visibility, change key bindings, and of course add whatever plugins/features you need. You can save view configurations as a workspace and save various preferences. But because components come from everywhere, support for configuration capture varies.

    People share their dotfiles for shell and vi/emacs configuration, but not their IDE configurations. It's too bad, because then there would be a configuration population to analyze when raising UI issues.

    ADHD and ASD are a broad spectrum. It may help to join the tribe because it validates our experience, but then we can fail to recognize our brain's specific biases. Worse, anyone over 7 has been getting good at compensating, which hides the issue, and our culture of excellence/competition/success == good (therefore failure bad) further obscures with shame, defeat, and self-sabotage. Legal requirements for accommodation help set a global floor, but may also work as a local ceiling by supplanting ordinary fellow-feeling.

    For reading fatigue, consider a dyslexia font, e.g., https://opendyslexic.org.

    GitHub link Website link Source license SIL-OFL I've come across this font that aims to make reading easier for people with dyslexia and I've never seen it implemented before. I feel like it would be really cool if it got implemented into more things :)

    So did I on Chrome, back in the early 2010s. (That's OpenDyslexic, whose creator [Abbie Gonzalez] I once met as a GPlusser.)

    Also I try to use OpenDyslexic font everywhere I don't want stylized font. Lots of people have some form of dyslexia, and those without it can still read it just fine. https://opendyslexic.org/

    Not sure if you have an ereader but if so, there are fonts you can use for your ebooks such as OpenDyslexic or Lexend to assist with reading. They're used to assist with character recognition, spacing and the general look of the font to make reading 'easier'. I believe the OpenDyslexic font may already come on readers like Kindle and Kobo whereas Lexend just needs to be downloaded onto the device. There is a fair amount of research behind each and I would say Lexend is my go to font, I find I can read quicker with it. Check out https://opendyslexic.org/ and https://www.lexend.com/ Hope this helps :)
