Are plain language summaries more readable than scientific abstracts? Evidence from six biomedical and life sciences journals
In recent decades, members of the general public have become increasingly reliant on findings of scientific studies for decision-making. However, scientific writing usually features a heavy use of technical language, which may pose challenges for people outside of the scientific community. To alleviate this issue, plain language summaries were introduced to provide a brief summary of scientific papers in clear and accessible language. Despite inc…
Examining lexical profile in general-audience English podcasts
We closely replicated Nurmukhamedov and Sharakhimov (2021), which was the first study to examine the lexical profile of general-audience English podcasts. Nurmukhamedov and Sharakhimov (2021) found that podcast listeners should have a knowledge of the most frequent 3,000 word families and 5,000 word families, respectively, plus proper nouns, marginal words, transparent compounds, and acronyms in order to achieve good and high-level listening comp…
A large-scale longitudinal study of syntactic complexity development in EFL writing
What makes teaching a long-term career? Insights from college English teachers in China
The present study examines college teachers’ initial and long-term career motivations. It was found that 1) themes in teachers’ reports aligned with dimensions included in the FIT-Choice framework, 2) peak moments (PMs) contributed to long-term career motivation and job satisfaction. We propose that PMs should be considered as a valid dimension to the FIT-Choice scale
Comparing lay summaries to scientific abstracts for readability and jargon use

Specifically, a series of experiments were performed based on a corp…
