Pour chaque type d'alphabétisation, on a établi cinq niveaux différents de compétence ... 20 % des Canadiens se classent aux niveaux 4 ou 5. Ces personnes ont un haut niveau d'alphabétisation, sont capables de lire toutes sortes de documents et connaissent de nombreux moyens de composer avec des documents complexes.
