Dr. Anita Chasiotis, research associate at ZPID, has been invited to take part in the task group "Quality, Evaluation and Impact Measurement in Science Communication" of the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).

The aim of the task group is to further integrate science communication into science practices. At ZPID, Anita Chasiotis also deals with the means of science communication. She is acting head of the "PLan Psy" project.

The project aim is to find out how research results can be communicated to the general public. Specifically, the project focuses on plain language summaries of psychological meta-analyses. The aim is to develop an evidence-based guideline that provides writing standards of plain language summaries in psychology.

"I am very pleased about the nomination and the opportunity to work on evidence-based guidelines and recommendations for the evaluation and impact measurement of science communication. This is a great opportunity to transfer ZPID research expertise into practice and at the same time a remarkable appreciation of our PLan Psy project and all contributors", says Chasiotis.

The task group "Quality, Evaluation and Impact Measurement in Science Communication" is one of several that belong to the #FactoryWisskomm project. The BMBF intends to sustainably and structurally strengthen science communication and improve the public discourse on science topics and the exchange between science and society in all its facets. High-ranking representatives from science, science funding and science journalism are taking part.
