What makes a good story? An empirical analysis of the factors that constitute “good” storytelling in the context of science communication
This study investigates how specific narrative elements, termed narrative depth, influence perceived story quality, transportation, and topic interest in science communication. Using structural equation modelling and experimental group comparisons, we examined the relationships between vivid imagery, protagonist emotions and motivations, and narrative engagement. Results showed that while narrative depth did not significantly impact perceived sto…
How to talk about science in ways that are comprehensible and interesting? Evaluation of an evidence-based science communication training program for graduate students
Introduction In order to graduate, students in higher education need to acquire a diverse set of competencies, among them mastering communicative competencies and skills.

We developed an evidence-based science communication training aiming to foster students’ abilities in …

This cross-sectional online study with N = 143 students show…
