Easily readable? Examining the readability of lay summaries published in Autism Research / Ju WEN in Autism Research, 16-5 (May 2023)
[article]
Titre : Easily readable? Examining the readability of lay summaries published in Autism Research Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Ju WEN, Auteur ; Sike HE, Auteur ; Lan YI, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.935-940 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Abstract Communicating science to the general public could sometimes be problematic partly because the language used in scientific writing was difficult to understand for people outside the scientific community. Against this backdrop, lay summaries were introduced to the research community. Lay summaries are short, non-technical summaries of scientific articles that are aimed at a lay audience. Despite the increasing attention on the roles that lay summaries play in scientific communication, it remains unclear whether they are comprehensible to the lay audience. To address the foregoing concerns, this study examines the readability of lay summaries published in Autism Research. It was found that lay summaries were more readable than traditional abstracts but were not easy enough to read for the lay audience. Possible explanations for these findings are discussed.
