ARCS (The Adult Reading Components Study):
The ARCS was conducted by researchers at the National Center for the Study of Adult Learning and Literacy (NCSALL). Nearly 1000 adult learners participated in the study, taking a variety of reading and language tests. Using cluster analysis, ten different reading profiles were identified from the results of these tests.

The ARCS has its own section of the site, which you can access by clicking on the link below.
