Abstract

The development of techniques for the modification of the human genome gives rise to heterogeneous communications and representations and is a relevant object for studying the dissemination of scientific innovations within society. Situated within the framework of social representations theory, our study aims to investigate the thematic dimensions of the public debate-as occurring in the French press-on the edition of human embryos. We conducted a lexicometric study of 343 French press articles with a hierarchical descending classification analysis and a correspondence analysis. Results indicate an evolution in the media treatment of human genome editing, from a popularization perspective to a focus on ethical and legislative aspects of genome editing. This study attempts to shed light on the structure and dynamics of information and meanings associated with human genome editing by analyzing the context in which communications surrounding genetic editing are situated and produced.

法国媒体如何处理有争议的生物技术?媒体对人类基因组编辑报道的社会心理研究。
人类基因组修饰技术的发展产生了异质的交流和表征,是研究科学创新在社会中的传播的相关对象。在社会表征理论的框架内,我们的研究旨在调查公众辩论的主题维度——正如发生在法国媒体上的——关于人类胚胎的版本。我们对343篇法语报刊文章进行了词汇计量学研究,采用层次下降分类分析和对应分析。研究结果表明,媒体对待人类基因组编辑的态度发生了演变,从普及的角度转向关注基因组编辑的伦理和立法方面。本研究试图通过分析围绕基因编辑的通信所处和产生的背景,揭示与人类基因组编辑相关的信息和意义的结构和动态。
