As you may have guessed by the name, slow processing speed is when people need a lot of time to take in, make sense of, and respond to information.  Visual information, such as characters or numbers,  can all be affected.  It can also affect auditory communication, such as spoken language.  Although some people digest information more slowly than others, it's crucial to note that processing speed has nothing to do with IQ.
