L'Enquête internationale sur la littératie des adultes a été menée par 22 pays entre 1994 et 1998. [...] L'objectif principal de l'enquête était de déterminer la mesure dans laquelle les adultes utilisent l'information pour fonctionner au sein de la société. Un autre objectif consistait à analyser les facteurs qui influent sur le niveau de littératie et à comparer ces facteurs entre les pays. 1, record 1, French, - Enqu%C3%AAte%20internationale%20sur%20la%20litt%C3%A9ratie%20des%20adultes
