================================================================  

We'd like to remind readers that the responses to queries are usually
best posted to the individual asking the question. That individual is
then strongly encouraged to post a summary to the list. This policy was
instituted to help control the huge volume of mail on LINGUIST; so we
would appreciate your cooperating with it whenever it seems appropriate.

In addition to posting a summary, we'd like to remind people that it
is usually a good idea to personally thank those individuals who have
taken the trouble to respond to the query.

My university (FernUniversität in Hagen) conducts a study about the
Readability of German texts. Participants are required to answer several
questions concerning the readability of 10 example texts. We have a raffle
among all participants where they can win one out of five Amazon vouchers
valued 50 Euro each. Everyone speaking German can take part!
