Year:
1999
Authors and Collaborators :
Willms, Douglas;  
Publishing Company:
, Statistics Canada
Abstract
These highlights provide a brief summary of the report "Inequalities in literacy skills among youth in Canada and the United States", the latest monograph released using data from the International Adult Literacy Survey. This report suggests that youth in North America do not fare as well in their literacy skills as their European counterparts. Variables such as income and education continue to have direct and indirect effects on people's literacy skills.
