- Abstract (EN)
- This discussion paper deals with the inclusion of people with low literacy skills in empirical social research. The group of authors Nina Weimann-Sandig, Johanna Schneider, Martin Möhring, Götz Schneiderat, Jan Schuhr and Harald Wagner shed light on the social relevance and challenges associated with the inclusion of these vulnerable groups in empirical social research. Low literacy is seen as a phenomenon that encompasses not only individual abilities, but also social conditions. The starting point of the discussion paper is the results of the LitInvolve project, which aimed to analyse the understanding of literacy and its consideration in the various phases of empirical social research. A key finding of the project is that people with low literacy skills are often not adequately rep-resented, leading to a neglect of their perspectives in research and policy-making processes. The discussion paper is divided into several sections. First, the theoretical background is outlined, followed by a detailed analysis of the concepts of low literacy and their relevance for social research. In a next step, the results of the quantitative survey of scientists and the qualitative interviews with low-literate people are presented. The results show that there are a variety of understandings of literacy that are context-dependent and often blurred. This has implications for the way in which research is conducted and how marginalised groups are included. The discussion of the empirical findings makes it clear that considering low literacy in research is not only necessary, but also an ethical obligation to reduce social inequalities.
