Description

Abstract: These guidelines are intended to assist writers and editors in preparation of written materials for adults with limited reading skills. Basic points in preparing informational material are as follows: know the characteristics of the audience so that the material is appropriate; clearly identify and organize the message; and present the material in a way to get and hold readers' attention long enough for them to retain the message. Illustrations, references, and a high-frequency word list are included.
