本文评价了经合组织1997年报告的国际成人识字调查的工作。它评估了它的贡献，了解识字的角度来看，新的识字研究。它概述了这一观点，作为一个主要关注测试有效性的批评的基础。三个批评的调查：它只提供了一个部分的识字情况;文化被视为偏见;和测试项目并不代表现实生活中的项目声称。最后，本文总结了IALS在其自身目标方面所取得的成就。
The paper evaluates the work of the International Adult Literacy Survey as reported in OECD 1997. It assesses its contribution to understanding literacy in terms of the perspective of the New Literacy Studies. It outlines this perspective as a basis for a critique that is mostly concerned with the validity of the test. Three criticisms of the survey are made: that it provides only a partial picture of literacy; that culture is treated as bias; and that the test items do not represent the real-life items as claimed. Finally, the paper concludes with an overall evaluation of what the IALS achieves in terms of its own aims.
