围绕COVID-19不断发展的科学使得与政策制定者的及时数字沟通对所有选区都变得越来越重要。科学界尤其如此，在科学界，循证决策可以影响公众反应的有效性。在这方面，了解如何有效地接触决策者以及哪些决策者可能会接触通过数字媒体提供的科学信息至关重要。这项研究提供了一种新的观察方法，通过科学电子邮件活动来理解与政策制定者的接触。我们使用了近3000名州政策制定者的样本，评估了来自五个数字信息活动的数据。结果表明立法者的四个配置文件：那些很少打开和打开缓慢（从不打开），那些谁只打开了几封电子邮件（罕见的开放者），那些谁打开很快，但并不总是打开（间歇性开放者），和那些一贯快速打开（总是开放者）。女性立法者和任期较短的立法者更有可能是总是开放者或间歇性开放者，相对于男性立法者和任期较长的立法者。这项研究揭示了电子邮件参与的模式，并表明科学传播工作可能需要采取更有针对性的策略，更好地接触那些倾向于不太频繁地参与电子邮件研究内容的政策制定者。
The evolving science around COVID‐19 made timely digital communication with policymakers increasingly important for all constituencies. This holds true particularly for the scientific community, where evidence‐informed policymaking can influence the effectiveness of public responses. In this context, understanding how to reach policymakers effectively and which policymakers are likely to engage with scientific information delivered through digital mediums is critical. This study provides a novel observational approach to understanding reach with policymakers through science email campaigns. Using a sample of nearly 3000 state policymakers, we assessed data from five digital messaging campaigns. Results indicate four profiles of legislators: those who rarely open and open slowly (Never Openers), those who only opened a couple of emails (Rare Openers), those who open quickly, but do not always open (Intermittent Openers), and those that consistently open quickly (Always Openers). Female legislators and legislators who had served for fewer terms were more likely to be Always Openers or Intermittent Openers, relative to male legislators and legislators who had served more terms. This study reveals patterns of email engagement and indicates science communication efforts may need to adopt more targeted strategies that better reach policymakers who tend to engage less frequently with emailed research content.
