科学博物馆努力创造具有有趣解释的展品。然而，现有的文字冗长的解释标志并不吸引人，因此，游客不会注意到它们。相比之下，由简单的图画和幽默组成的醒目漫画可以吸引科学博物馆的参观者。这项研究试图揭示漫画是否有助于科学展览。20多幅漫画被选为与一家科学博物馆的展品有关的漫画。每一集都被打印出来，放在相应的展品旁边。向博物馆参观者发放了一份问卷，以评估漫画的效果。大多数参观者回答说，漫画有助于理解展品和熟悉科学。与会者还描述了漫画的不足之处，这些不足之处将在未来的修订中考虑。漫画可能会提高人们对科学展览的兴趣和理解。此外，这些条带预计将以各种方式丰富科学博物馆，如建立它们的独特性。
Science museums make the effort to create exhibits with amusing explanations. However, existing explanation signs with lengthy text are not appealing, and as such, visitors do not pay attention to them. In contrast, conspicuous comic strips composed of simple drawings and humors can attract science museum visitors. This study attempted to reveal whether comic strips contribute to science exhibitions. More than 20 comic strips were chosen that were associated with exhibits in a science museum. The individual episodes were printed out and placed beside the corresponding exhibits. A questionnaire was administered to museum visitors to evaluate the effects of the comic strips. Most visitors responded that the comic strips were helpful in understanding the exhibits and in familiarizing themselves with the science. Participants also described the comic strips’ deficiencies which will be considered for future revisions. Comic strips are likely to enhance interest in and comprehension of science exhibitions. Furthermore, these strips are expected to enrich science museums in various ways such as establishing their uniqueness.
