The study shows that the majority of research undertaken and published in the UK since 1970 concentrates on the reading habits of the over 7s (particularly the 10 to 15 age group). Whilst further broadly based research into the reading habits of the under 7s is required, research relating to the over 7s should concentrate on specific issues raised by existing research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
