In your opinion is reading War and Peace the same accomplishment as listening to the audiobook? Why or why not?

I love audiobooks and consume them frequently but I personally don’t call it reading. It doesn’t feel like the same activity to me. What do you think?

Overall, the researchers found that reading and listening were about equally effective for understanding information.

There you go. Glad you finally got there.

Again, no mention of testing in distracted settings.

Why would they do that? Add confounding factors to their study?
