Development and Evaluation of a Program to Improve Scientists' Science Communication Skills

在这项研究中，我们采访了19名参加过“科学咖啡馆”的早期职业科学家。从这些采访中，我们确定了导致他们不愿参加科学咖啡馆的五个因素。在这些因素中，有两个因素可能是参与科学咖啡馆的内在障碍的一个指标。为了更多地了解在科学咖啡馆里到底发生了什么，我们实现了三个科学咖啡馆并记录了它们。然后，我们尝试对视频中的交流模式进行分类。最后，我们确定了三种自上而下的观点（进行有效的公共对话所需要的东西）和三种自下而上的观点（识别特征沟通模式的例子）相对应的代表性场景。

In this study, we interviewed 19 early-career scientists who had participated in "science cafes." From these interviews, we identified five factors leading to their reluctance to participate in science cafes. Among these factors, two factors might be an indicator of more intrinsic barriers to engaging in science cafes.In order to know more about what actually happened in the science cafes, we implemented three science cafes and recorded them. Then, we tried to classify the communication patterns in the videos. Finally, we identified the representative scenes corresponding to the combination of three top-down viewpoints (what is needed to make an effective public dialogue) and three bottom-up viewpoints (identifying examples of characteristic communication patterns).
