Readability of Introductory Psychology Textbooks: Flesch Versus Student Ratings.
Griesinger, Walter S.; Klene, Richard R.
Teaching of Psychology, v11 n2 p90-91 Apr 1984
Undergraduate students enrolled in a Principles of Psychology II course were asked to rate selections from introductory psychology texts for reading ease. These student ratings were then compared with the ratings obtained using the Flesch readability formula. Student ratings did not agree very well with the Flesch scores. (RM)
