This is not unique to science journalism, but it may disproportionately affect science pieces, simply because it is so challenging to briefly and accurately summarize a study&#8217;s outcomes and relevance without resorting to jargon. Titles inevitably oversimplify the science. That&#8217;s not a problem as long as the article builds on the title to clarify and explain further. But when the editors responsible for titling pieces don&#8217;t understand the science or its context, the title can end up not merely simplified, but misleading, inaccurate, or just plain creepy. &quot;<\/div>\n<div class=\"delicious-tags\">(tags: <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/science\">science<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/blogs\">blogs<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/publishing\">publishing<\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/delicious.com\/orzelc\/journalism\">journalism<\/a>)<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Setshot: Basketball for the Aging and Infirm: &quot;Worse than he thinks&quot;: Self-image versus ability &quot;To me, the worst players to run with (aside from the belligerent and insane) are those with drastically inflated self-images.
