科學新聞文本的論述層次及結構分佈：構思另個科學傳播的起點

本文旨在透過內容分析法解析國內主要媒體之科學新聞論述層次、分佈及可能侷限。研究結果顯示，國內科學新聞報導偏離國家重要科技發展方向而多集中於產製過程下游及社會影響性，對高層次科學問題相對忽略，且援用編譯稿比例偏高。此報導概況不但難以體現科學活動的多重樣貌，更易侷限閱聽人之科學知識視野。面對這些問題宜從改善國內科學傳播環境著手，鼓勵跨學科之相關研究的投入，以促進整體公民社會在「科學素養」及「媒體素養」上的提升。

This study analyzes the discourses, patterns and limitations of science news in three major newspapers in Taiwan. The results show clear differences between patterns of these science news reports and society's technological orientation. Moreover, the news reports mainly focus on a lower process of science production and social influence domain, which relatively miss the report on high-level science issues. Furthermore, there are also high frequency uses of translation reports. To improve the current situation, the researchers suggest to promote the development of domain science communication environment and encourage the interdisciplinary research of science communication. By doing so, we may enhance the 'scientific literacy' and 'media literacy' of all the citizens at the same time.
