Notes: The National Adult Literacy Survey was conducted in 1992 by the Educational Testing Service for the U.S. Department

of Education. 13,600 adults were interviewed in their homes and asked to complete a booklet of literacy tasks. The results were represented in three scales, each from 0-500: prose, document and quantitative. Each scale was then subdivided into 5 levels:Level 1(the lowest) was 0-225, Level 2 226-275, Level 3 276-325 etc. A new survey is now being conducted. The National Institute for Literacy commissioned Portland State Univ. to develop a model for estimating proficiencies

in geographic areas like the counties above not adequately sampled by the 1992 survey. The values above all fall within the 95% confidence intervals.
