Beyond Readability Formulas.

Williams, Pamela Perrigo

Florida Vocational Journal, v4 n9 p24-27 Jun 1979

Groups these elements into four major areas: (1) vocabulary, (2) sentence structure, (3) organization (the way sentences are arranged into paragraphs), and (4) relevance (the way the author relates the topic to the reader's experience). (LRA)
