Abstract
This study considered genetic research relating to cancer outcomes and behaviors, specifically investigating the extent to which claims made in press releases (=23) and mainstream print media (=71) were fairly derived from their original presentation in scholarly journals (20 Central claims expressing gene-outcome relationships were evaluated by a large pool (40) of genetics graduate students. Raters judged press release claims as significantly more representative of material within the original science journal article compared with news article claims. Claims originating in news articles which demonstrated contact with individuals not directly involved in the research were judged by experts to be more representative of the original science as compared with those that demonstrated contact with individuals directly involved in the research.
摘要
本研究考量了与癌症结局及行为相关的基因研究，具体调查了新闻稿（=23篇）和主流平面媒体（=71篇）中的说法在多大程度上是从学术期刊中的原始表述合理衍生而来的。20条表达基因与结局关系的核心说法由大量（40名）遗传学研究生进行评估。与新闻文章中的说法相比，评估者认为新闻稿中的说法更能代表原始科学期刊文章中的内容。与那些表明与直接参与研究的个人有联系的新闻文章中的说法相比，专家认为那些表明与未直接参与研究的个人有联系的新闻文章中的说法更能代表原始科学。
