Using the Raygor Readability Estimate for Social Studies.
Wolinski, John T.; Bozman, Maurice W.
Social Studies, v74 n5 p215-19 Sep-Oct 1983
The Raygor Readability Estimate, described in this article, is much like the widely used Fry Readability Graph, except that it determines vocabulary difficulty by counting words of six or more letters, rather than by counting syllables. An evaluation found that Raygor was faster and easier to use and more objective than the Fry method. (RM)
