What does "slow processing speed" mean?

Post Reply New Topic

The question is in the title.

From my own assessment, this is what I conclude:

It means you slow to
-take in information
-work out what to do with the information
-or both.

It isn't really helpful on its own, as it's just a description instead of an explanation. However, it does have significance when you associate it with a condition.

I'm trying to figure it out myself. It is one of my executive impairments, along with working memory, and they are interconnected, it seems. End result seems to be just plain slow at everything. Every boss I've ever had has pointed that out.

I'll think about it and let you know next week.

Taking longer to process and respond to things basically. I suppose it can make one appear a bit slow, I think it might be one reason whilst teachers and such told me I was intelligent other kids called me ret*d sometimes. Some where probably just being jerks but I imagine some did mean I was being 'slow'. Interestingly enough I have gotten into playing league of legends and well if anything perhaps it helps a little since you have to work towards quick response time and that is certainly something I struggle with. But I guess doing it in kind of a fun way helps because I care enough to keep trying.
