Three Part Model -ANSWER-1 Qualitative Measures
The qualitative measures of text complexity requires an informed

calculate the difficulty of the text, assigning a single measure (grade
level equivalent, number, Lexile etc). There are many formulas to

or difficulty level of a text can vary depending on which formulas or
measures are used.
