Scribd首席技术长贾里德・弗里德曼(Jared Friedman)称,主动信号代表我们希望自己去读的书,而被动信号则更为诚实。比如说,许多人会给《了不起的盖茨比》(The Great Gatsby)五星的评分,但他们在专心阅读诸如《达芬奇密码》(The Da Vinci Code)之类的惊悚小说时却不一定会给它们评分。(Scribd拒绝谈论有关具体书籍的数据。)
Other findings: Self-help might be a popular market, yet only about 20% of people who start such a book finish it. More than 80% of people who crack the pages of a mystery novel will find out who did it.
其他发现还包括:励志类书籍或许是个热门领域,但是选择此类图书的读者只有约20%的人会把它读完。阅读悬疑小说的读者有80%以上的人能解开谜底。
People trudge through biographies at 20 pages per hour, while they read at three times that speed for erotica. And higher 'acceleration factor' -- or how much readers speed up as they get closer to finishing -- correlates with higher average rating for a book. One of the highest acceleration factors comes from Kurt Vonnegut's 'Cat's Cradle,' which readers start speeding through at the halfway mark, Mr. Friedman says.
人们阅读自传作品的速度仅为每小时20页,读色情作品的速度则是这个速度的三倍。较高的“加速因子”――即读者快要把书读完时的加速幅度――与书籍较高的平均评分有关。弗里德曼透露,库尔特・冯内古特(Kurt Vonnegut)的《猫的摇篮》(Cat's Cradle)是加速因子最高的作品之一,读者在读到一半时就开始加快阅读速度。
