The construction of field in science popularization stories and their source research articles: implications for reading courses at university level

Science popularization articles directly sourced from research articles may be an appealing resource for combining the development of EFL reading strategies and the construction of scientific knowledge. The purpose of this work was to analyze a corpus of science popularization stories published under the topic Fitness in the Science Daily website (sub-corpus 1) and their source research articles (sub-corpus 2) in order to identify different degrees of complexity in the construction of the field, understood as “the domain of experience the text relates to” (Halliday and Matthiessen, 2014).
