Magnitude of the Issue
When reflecting on patient- or health-related research, reading ability and literacy skills as they relate to comprehension were the initial focus reported in the literature in the 1980s and 1990s (Speros, 2005). Those in the field of health literacy owe a tremendous amount of appreciation for the early research done by Leonard and Cecilia Doak and Jane Root. Doak, Doak, and Root helped to demonstrate the gap that existed between health education materials and a per• son's lack of comprehension and this was shared in their publication Teaching Patients with Low Literacy Skills (Doak, Doak, & Root, 1996).
