The three factors that influence an author's choice of organizational structure are:
-
Complexity of the topic - A more complex topic may require a more detailed or layered organizational structure to help the reader understand.
-
Target audience's comprehension level - The author's choice of structure will often depend on what the audience can easily comprehend and engage with.
-
Purpose of the text - The objective behind writing (to inform, persuade, entertain, etc.) will significantly impact how the author organizes the content.
Length of the document and publication deadline may affect how thoroughly the author can elaborate on the topic but are not primary factors influencing organizational structure.
